This project module is a contribution to peace and social cohesion in Colombia, through a functioning multipurpose cadastre. Insecurity in land rights increases vulnerability to violence of certain groups such as farmers, women and indigenous people. Within the framework of the World Bank Trust Fund for the multipurpose cadastre, the GIZ project aims to increase the capacity of implementing cadastre organisations in making context analysis, implementing awareness campaigns and increasing participation of local communities. <br />

There is global recognition that local governments have a significant role in implementing the agreed agendas with other state and non-state organisations.<br />
