|
|
Somalia, 5 Oct 11
Following the UN-HABITAT Global Land Tool Network’s 2010 launch of a formal training package on land, property, and housing rights in the Muslim world, the UN-HABITAT Somalia Programme held a training of trainers from 4 to 8 April 2011 in Nairobi. Siraj Sait, a main contributing author of the training package, conducted the training for staff from Somaliland, Puntland, and Nairobi. Examining actual land cases from Somalia and other countries, the training course targets trainers in the land sector who can then disseminate key land administration concepts in Somalia. Training for local authorities will be carried out in the last quarter of 2011. |
