The conference is part of the work envisaged under equal land rights from women and youths. The IGAD Land Governance Unit focuses on strengthening the implementation of land governance in-country, translating regionally developed tools and frameworks into implementable tools by Member States for improved tenure security, reduced conflict, improved food security, and increased economic wellbeing of the citizens. This is hinged on improving land administration systems to enable the documentation of land rights and resolve land conflicts, improve land use and management as a way of securing land rights, address land economy and promote land rights for all.
