NEW : a school for land administration studies

Molen, Paul van der ... [et al.]

At 23 March 2006 the International Institute for Geo-Information Science and Earth Observation ((ITCC) and the Cadastre, Land Registry and Mapping Agency ((Kadasterr), both in the Netherlands, signed an agreement to establish a School for Land Administration Studies. Land administration is challenged by both global institutions and local governments to encompass innovative ideas on land tenure, legal security, and technology to provide simple, transparent, cheap and manageable systems. ITC and Kadaster believe that enhancing knowledge and expertise on land administration requires scientific concepts, methods and models on one hand, and governance, management and operational skills on the other hand. Both are well served by a combination of a University (ITC) and an operational Agency (Kadaster) in developing and delivering education, services and research. Through ITC the School operates in association with the United Nations University, UNU.
