| Summary: | This Review attempts to be a timely input into the legal and policy reform agenda and the implementation process on which the Government has embarked. The report has been elaborated in close partnership with the National Land Tenure Reform Program (Programme National Foncier).

The report investigates some of the major land-related issues under the following headings: (i) overview of land tenure and land markets; (ii) the current property rights regimes (statutory and customary); (iii) the economic benefits of the current land titling system; (iv) open access and natural resources; (v) private sector issues; (vi) reforms underway and outstanding; and (vii) the piloting and implementation strategy. The main recommendations of the report are summarized in matrix form in Annex 1. |
