Land Administration Project

closed

The Land Administration Project's objectives are: a) to increase legal security of land tenure in Guatemala; and b) to strengthen the legal and institutional framework for land registry and cadastre services nationwide. The project consists of three components. First, cadastre and land regularization will support the mapping of the Peten cadastre, in-field adjudication upon demand, and data processing of areas subject to regularization. The end result is the establishment of a parcel-based cadastre that can be integrated with the registry system. Second, the land registry component will support the opening of a registry office in Peten and modernizing registry records management. It also includes office space renovation, office equipment, consultant services, and training. Third, Project Management Unit will finance the implementation management, administration, monitoring, and evaluation of the project.
