Global Campaign to Eradicate Insecurity of Tenure by 2030
The global eradication of infectious diseases through highly coordinated campaigns has been successful. Smallpox affecting humans was officially eradicated in 1980 and rinderpest, affecting ruminants, was declared completely eradicated in 2010. Global campaigns to eradicate polio, guinea worm disease, yaws and malaria are under way.

Although insecurity of tenure is not a disease, its impact is nevertheless devastating in terms of trapping people in poverty, displacing communities and making them homeless, and reducing food security and creating hunger. Only about 30% of the world’s population are covered by official land administration systems, while the rest potentially suffer from insecurity of tenure. This is a human rights issue. Therefore, should a global campaign to accelerate the eradication of insecurity of tenure be planned and initiated? To achieve, say, 80% global security of tenure by 2030?
时间肯定是宽度的。最近的方法和支持技术旨在扩大土地权利的捕获和记录:最近由全球土地工具网络(GLTN)推出的易用土地管理指导原则,为全国迅速提供实惠的整体框架提供了整体框架土地管理解决方案;开放的地理空间联盟(OGC)正在为土地管理局创造新标准;土地管理局现在是UN-GGIM的重点;负责任治理的自愿准则由粮农组织出版,现在全球公认;和可持续发展目标(SDG)强调了土地权利在实现许多全球目标方面的关键作用。土地问题目前在政治议程上很高,因此似乎是启动这项全球承诺的时间是正确的。
在土地部门中的当前利益相关者集合,将无法实现这一全球运动的拟议时间表。例如,必须鼓励Facebook和Google等全球参与者支持这一运动以提供创新的技术解决方案。例如,Facebook最近使用人工智能软件扫描了146亿卫星图像,以识别非洲20个国家的人工建筑结构。社交网络希望利用这些信息来确定最能够部署互联网上的Aquila无人机。通过新的伙伴关系,可以实现新的,有价值的数据来源,以执行任期保障。
However, building sustainable land administration systems is not just a technical issue. This global campaign will only have a chance of succeeding if strong political support is generated within the countries most at need of achieving nationwide security of tenure. This campaign, with the right champions, has the opportunity to raise insecurity of tenure as a global affliction to be defeated and to trigger the essential political support.
It is time for the land sector communities to be more ambitious in their goals, involve new partners to support innovation, adopt highly scalable approaches, collaborate more effectively under this common objective to eradicate this scourge on the Earth and create land rights for all. This proposed global campaign could well be the necessary catalyst for change.
