FIG Foundation - Building a Sustainable Future
|
Stepping into the world of cadastre
“The
opportunity of participating at a FIG Conference was an
eye-opener and changed my world. The contacts opened new doors
for me. I was exposed to world class experts where valuable
experiences and best practices were learnt. The interactions
with such an august body of experts enabled me to initiate
revisions into the arbitrary service charge regime… and ensuring
modernisation and self-sustainability of the Eritrean Cadastral
Office.”
Habtemicael Weldegiorgis from Eritrea
received the Foundation Fellowship to present his paper
“The Cadastral System in Eritrea: Practice, Constraints,
and Prospects" FIG Working Week in Eilat, Israel in
2009. The paper was selected as the
article of the month in September 2009
In a Geoconnexion article Habtemicael Weldegeorgis tells his personal
story on how he has managed to build up a cadastral system in Eritrea and
how contacts and persistent learnings have helped him in his work as
director general of the Cadastral Office in Eritrea and to develop the
cadastral system in the country. Eritrea is located in the strategic area of
the Horn of Africa with 3.5 mio population of which 35% live in urban areas.
