Description
Purpose
The main purpose of the National Land Use Planning Commission is to have sustainable land management systems which address issues of land degradation and conflicts in order to maintain peace and harmony. This can only be achieved through co-ordinated participation of all stakeholders in land resources management at all levels such as national sectors (ministries, non governmental organisations, and companies), regions, districts and villages. Henceforth, there is immense need of the Commission as a central body to perform the roles of co-ordination, policy and law formulation, and build capacity of land use planning at local levels.
