International Land Systems (ILS), Inc. has entered into a three-year World Bank-funded contract to encourage private sector growth by improving the country’s land administration systems. The Private Sector Competitiveness Project (PSCPII) aims to assist the Government of Uganda in eradicating the primary constraints preventing the international competitiveness of Uganda’s private sector. Fundamental to achieving this goal will be modernizing the land registry. As part of PSCPII, the Design, Supply, Installation, Implementation of the Lands Information System and Securing of Land Records (DeSILISoR) supplementary project will establish a modern national land information system and land records archiving system to underpin future enterprise creation and growth, and increase public access and tenure security. Through the pilot project, a transparent and efficient land management system will help to mitigate the current difficult processes associated with obtaining and transferring evidence of land ownership as well as generating a more attractive environment for investment.
