Annual World Bank Conference on Land and Poverty 2015

Linking Land Tenure and Use for Shared Prosperity

The Annual World Bank Conference on Land and Poverty organized by the World Bank Development Economic Research Group (DECRG) is a key global event where representatives from governments, civil society, academia, the development community, and the private sector come together annually to discuss new developments and progress on land policy and implementation. The conference aims to foster dialogue and sharing of best practices on the diversity of reforms, approaches and experiences that are being implemented in land sectors around the world.   A new feature to the 2015 Conference was a day of MasterClasses on March 27. Sponsors and Partners offered hands-on MasterClasses or clinics in a classroom setting to familiarize participants with cutting edge tools and techniques developed to help policy makers. Specific classes can be viewed on the online agenda. For more information on the conference, contact landconference@worldbank.org
