The World Bank has approved $370-million funding for a government program that seeks to accelerate the subdivision of collective certificates of land ownership award and generate individual titles on lands awarded under the Comprehensive Agrarian Reform Program (CARP).

In a statement over the weekend, the World Bank said the Support to Parcelization of Lands for Individual Titling Project of the Department of Agrarian Reforms will support the government’s ongoing efforts for parcelization and individual titling through the adoption of improved technologies and digital platforms, improvements in regulations, streamlining of procedures in the titling process, and enhanced consultations with beneficiaries.
