Cameroon - Support Project for Modernization of the Land Registration System and Business Climate (PAMOCCA)

The Support Project for Modernization of the Land Registration System and Business Climate (PAMOCCA) falls under the implementation of the National Growth and Employment Strategy (DSCE) 2010-2020. This strategy presents the National Vision aimed at facilitating access by Cameroon to the status of emerging country by 2035, and considers efficient management of land as a factor for promoting the private sector and economic competitiveness. The project will contribute to building the capacities of the Government in its role as facilitator and regulator of socio-economic activity. It will also contribute to improving its strategic management capacity so as to consolidate its role in the delivery of quality public services, improvement of the business environment and, ultimately, its leadership in regional integration. In response to the urgent need to modernize land registration and tenure, the project will use the Rapid Results Approach (RRA), which helps to shorten the time needed for effectiveness of the loan agreement, and target tangible and developmental results. The total project cost is estimated at UA 8.22 million. It will concentrate on the 4 Cameroonian towns with extensive land reserves (Yaounde, Douala, Maroua and Garoua).
