The African Land Policy Centre (ALPC) has put in place a number of mechanisms for land policy development and implementation including establishing or reinforcing existing platforms, generating knowledge and developing capacity. One of centre’s objectives is to contribute to knowledge generation, dissemination and management in order to enhance the evidence base for land policy development and implementation. This objective is being achieved through research, publications, and knowledge sharing and learning forums. The conference was an important policy dialogue, information sharing and learning event. It provided an opportunity to further develop capacity of stakeholders in the land sector for land policy development and implementation. The conference adopted a scientific approach through the establishment of a scientific committee and the involvement of research and academic institutions. It also reached out to other constituencies in government, private sector and civil society and encouraged deliberations on persistent and emerging and policy issues and research agendas.
