    The ABC Model
    (Namibia University of Science and Technology, Integrated Land Management Institute, 2018-05) Christensen, Åse
    How does one build up an analysis? And how does one create the link between the individual partial-analyses in a problem-oriented project work? These are the two main issues that this booklet gives an overview of. This document is a presentation of a way in which an analysis, a sub-project and a project can be structured.

    The Flexible Land Tenure System in the Context of the Sustainable Development Goals
    (Namibia University of Science and Technology, Integrated Land Management Institute, 2017-04) Christensen, Åse
    The purpose of this study is to investigate whether the Flexible Land Tenure System (FLTS) in Namibia is in line with the Fit-For-Purpose (FFP) land administration approach which is developed in order to implement the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) at national and local level in developing countries by providing tenure security to poor people and creating country-wide land recordation systems. The FFP approach is based on a Minimum Viable Product focusing on the specific local tenure security needs, flexibility on survey accuracy, legal and institutional frameworks and an incremental improvement as a foundation for further development. The study is based on a literature study of the SDGs, the FFP approach and the FLTS in Namibia. The literature study is based on contemporary theories on land administration and how access to tenure security can contribute to poverty alleviation. The study indicates that certain elements of the FLTS are complying with the characteristics of the FFP approach and thus has potential to contribute to fulfilling the SDGs in Namibia. There is however a need for further in-depth academic research.

    The new Flexible Land Tenure Act: an update.
    (Namibia University of Science and Technology, Integrated Land Management Institute, 2015-10) Christensen, Åse
    The Flexible Land Tenure (FLT) system was developed by the Ministry of Lands and Resettlement and the discussions started in the period of 1992-1998. It was conceived as an alternative for the land tenure catering for low income groups. The act passed in 2012, and currently the regulations are being revised for approval.
