WORLD BANK LAND CONFERENCE

Land Rights and Access for Climate Action

Monday, May 13 (local time)
10:30-11:30 am ET / 15:30-16:30 GMT 

GO TO: SPEAKERS

Clear land tenure is fundamental for scaling climate action. Insecure land tenure keeps landholders from investing in climate adaptation and mitigation measures like sustainable land use practices. Unclear or overlapping laws impede access to land for implementing climate and disaster risk management projects. As urbanization accelerates further and climate impacts become more severe, tensions over land will only become more complex.

Join this live streamed session to learn more about leading solutions for strengthening land governance to meet climate targets and other sustainable development goals.

The conference, which will be held in Washington, D.C., from May 13 to 17, will aim to guide investments, promote dialogue, advocate evidence-based policies, and share innovative practices. This year's theme, "Securing Land Tenure and Access for Climate Action," focuses on climate change strategies. Learn more.
