Workshop on ‘Sustainable Land Governance and Real Estate’

7th to 9th December 2024

Venue- IIM Ahmedabad

 

We are happy to announce the Call for a 3-day workshop on ‘Sustainable Land Governance and Real Estate’.

Over the last few decades, the land administration system experienced significant changes from the absence of ownership rights and land market to the establishment of private ownership through streamlined policy reforms. It’s been well acknowledged that the Real Estate Market is one of the key drivers of economic development, improved livelihood and economic prosperity. In many countries, while the real estate market is more developed in urban areas, it remains significantly underdeveloped in the peri-urban area which impacts a large portion of the population The underdevelopment of the real estate market can be attributed to various factors, lack of private land ownership, poor regulatory framework, land fragmentation, limited access to finance, and poor grievance redressal mechanisms. 

​

​

The evolution of the real estate market highlights the potential of the land market for governments, individuals, and firms, especially in emerging markets.  Besides, real estate transcends beyond finance and urban economics. Sustainability has become an increasingly prominent topic of discussion, and real estate is rapidly evolving to address this goal.

As the sector ventures into unchartered territories with new technologies, considerations such as land use, mortgage markets, and valuation are cardinal in real estate development, financing, and investment decisions. Additionally, the emergence of real estate securities and private equity investments further highlights the diversification options available for financing this asset class.
