| dc.description | The fifth conference of Land Policy in Africa (CLPA) took place in Addis Ababa from 21-24 November 2023 under the theme: “Promoting Sustainable Land Governance in Africa for Accelerating Implementing of the African Continental Free Trade Agreement (AfCFTA)”. CLPA was co-organized by the Government of Ethiopia and the African Land Policy Center, a joint initiative of the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa (ECA), the African Union Commission (AUC), and the African Development Bank. Participants included experts from government, academia, research, traditional authorities, other non-state actors, the private sector, and development partners. The overall objective of the conference was to deepen commitment and strengthen capacity for land policy development, implementation, and monitoring in Africa through improved access to knowledge and information in support of evidence-based land policymaking. The dialogue also fostered improved networking, resources for land governance and land policy in Africa, and partnerships. Esther Obaikol, a Land Governance Expert at IGAD, stated at the 2023 Conference on Land Policy in Africa that 70% of the IGAD region is arid or semi-arid. The primary land use in this region is pastoralism, which means the main resource is rangelands, not fully available for arable or agricultural productivity, but for livestock production. The main conflicts experienced in the region are related to pasture and water, as livestock require these resources. Conflicts arise when people move in search of these resources, leading to conflicts with others in the region. | en |
