Analysis of the implementation of multipurpose cadastre in Colombia based on international experiences

Multipurpose cadastre is a fundamental aspect of the post-conflict transition in Colombia as it allows for an inventory of vacant lots in which there can be occupation and inhabitant conditlons. Moreover, the government could have a complete inventory of public properties, protected environmental areas and properties that belong to communities of indigenous and African descent Additionally, this would be a fundamental tool for the land return process in order to guarantee rights to property and an organized property registry for re-appropriated land. lt could also consider existing outcomes in countries in which this process has already taken place and could identify the main obstacles and advantages through these case studies to maximizing overall benefits. lt is crucial now, in Colombia, to implement a policy that meets the needs of the country and that can correct the flaws and inconsistencies that have arisen around the cadastre and land administration. As a result, this paper will present the current situation in Colombia in the first section and a summary of the current Government's proposal in the second. The third section Will describe the methodology used and the fourth section will emplay an evaluation framework analysis to evaluate the Government's proposaL Finally, conclusions and recommendations on future issues that are important when considering the usefulness of a multipurpose cadastre system in Colombia Will be presented. This research has been undertaken with the use of a mind map technique that helps to structure the information collected in interviews with international and national experts, and a review of specialized documents, a process which helped with the breakdown of economic, physical, legal, and institutional aspects in arder to find important feedback by taking other countries experiences into account. The research was conducted based on the advice of the CSDILA group at the University of Melbourne which provided great support during the development of this research. As a final point, this research shows the possibility of adapting the evaluation methodology designed by Steudler 2004 to assess the CONPES 3859 policy, it also sets out recommendations to improve policy, and presents important aspects that should be taken into consideration during the implementation process.
