Apeldoorn Declaration on Land Consolidation and Land Readjustment for Sustainable Development
We, participants of the International Symposium on Land Consolidation and Land Readjustment, organised in Apeldoorn, The Netherlands, 9 to 11 November 2016, hereby issue the Apeldoorn Declaration on Land Consolidation and Land Readjustment for Sustainable Development. Land consolidation involves according to FAO: ?(?.) measures to adjust the structure of property rights through co-ordination between owners and users. Land consolidation involves the reallocation of parcels to remove the effects of fragmentation but the term goes well beyond these actions. Land consolidation has been associated with broad economic and social reforms from the time of its earliest applications?. This definition does not exclude any objectives of land consolidation nor does it promote specific approaches.
