Dr. Emmanuel Nkurunziza, RCMRD Director General delivered a keynote speech at the ongoing Eastern Africa Land Administration Network (EALAN) conference held in Nairobi, Kenya. Dr. Nkurunzinza’s speech focused on land administration and governance in the Eastern Africa region, including opportunities and challenges. He stated the importance of land in all aspects of human life. He further emphasized RCMRD’s commitment in supporting and advancing proper land administration and governance agenda. “As RCMRD we’ll champion this cause & engage with everyone in this field to advance the agenda”, he asserted.

Although there have been initiatives taken at national and international levels to improve land administration and governance, there are still numerous challenges. In this regard, EALAN is holding a conference themed “Promoting Land Administration and Governance for Sustainable Development in Eastern Africa” to examine and address some of these challenges. EALAN was established with a view of creating a platform for knowledge and experience exchange for provision of quality services to achieve reliable land policies and governance.
