Synopsis (short abstract) In line with the Voluntary Guidelines on the Responsible Governance of Tenure (VGGT), public and private investments globally are increasingly recognising responsible land governance as a determinant for the success and sustainability of their achievements. Investment managers understand that preventing and mitigating tenure related issues is a necessary step to achieve their objectives. While a wide range of tools, community-based participatory approaches, and technologies are available to help clarify, protect and secure tenure rights, navigating this landscape requires expertise which is often not available to investment projects. This guide provides readers with a basic understanding of the functional linkages between land tenure and land-based investments. It illustrates the process of protecting and securing legitimate tenure rights through recordation, describes how to use fit-for-purpose technology to strengthen / support the process, identifies choices in selecting the appropriate technology based on objectives and context, and provides clear criteria to inform the choice.

Conformément aux Directives volontaires pour une gouvernance responsable des régimes fonciers, les investissements publics et privés dans le monde reconnaissent de plus en plus la gouvernance foncière responsable comme un déterminant du succès et de la durabilité de leurs réalisations. Les gestionnaires d'investissement comprennent que la prévention et l'atténuation des problèmes liés à la tenure sont une étape nécessaire pour atteindre leurs objectifs. Alors qu'un large éventail d'outils, d'approches participatives communautaires et de technologies sont disponibles pour aider à clarifier, protéger et sécuriser les droits fonciers, naviguer dans ce paysage nécessite une expertise qui n'est souvent pas disponible pour les projets d'investissement. Ce guide fournit aux lecteurs une compréhension de base des liens fonctionnels entre le régime foncier et les investissements fonciers. Il illustre le processus de protection et de sécurisation des droits fonciers légitimes par l'enregistrement, décrit comment utiliser une technologie adaptée pour renforcer/soutenir le processus, identifie les choix dans la sélection de la technologie appropriée en fonction des objectifs et du contexte, et fournit des critères clairs pour informer le choix.
