The article talks about title to land in Africa and the problems in not having a formal land registry. Part of the problem seems to be surveying or mapping the properties.
That I think we have some expertise in doing. So given there seems to be some advantages to the population if it's done is there anything we can do to assist the process? Each country will be different, the respect for the law differs from one country to the next. Rwanda has had some success but I suspect with some GIS input we might be able to improve the process. Not perhaps the normal approach we take but making Africa more resilient might reduce the number of times we need to map a crisis. Thoughts? Cheerio John
