Catalytic Support On Land Issues In Nepal
Abstract:
Despite the political and democratic progress since the end of the armed conflict between the Maoists and the Government in 2006, Nepal continues to face multiple land issues and land related disputes. Many of these are deeply entrenched in Nepalese society, having been one of the major drivers of the 10-years conflict. Additional problems regarding land ownership and land access have been caused by the large-scale displacement and subsequent land grabbing during the conflict period. Resolving land disputes remains a significant challenge for Nepal and their resolution, which are highly sensitive, lie at the core of Nepal’s peace process. The Comprehensive Peace Agreement strongly emphasizes the urgent need for a comprehensive land reform. IOM maps the existing situation of land and land disputes in the three districts, engages stakeholders in dialogue and enhances institutional capacities of district land offices. Building on the work and systems already put in place by the Government of Nepal, IOM further supports the evolution and strengthening of future land reform and renders technical assistance and implements land dispute resolution.
