Title

Working Session on the Finalization of the Capacity Development Framework
Thursday, July 3, 2014 to Friday, July 4, 2014
Addis Ababa

The Land Policy Initiative (LPI) organizes a working session to review and finalize for publication the Capacity Development Framework for land policy in Africa (CDF), in line with key messages and recommendations from the validation workshop, held in October 2013. It is expected that the CDF document will be examined to ensure that key messages are conveyed in an appropriate and accessible manner to the target audience, which includes government officials, heads of land administration agencies, leaders of civil society organizations, farmer and women organizations, as well as centers of learning and land experts.  The working session will gather a small group of experts and resource persons selected from different institutions, based on their knowledge on capacity development and awareness of the LPI process of developing the CDF. The finalization process will be facilitated by the LPI Secretariat. The CDF is the result of a participatory process initiated in 2012 by the LPI and UN-Habitat/Global Land Tool Network (GTLN).
