Improving access to land-related data and information is our mission. This is what we do: Provide a platform for land data, publications, news, blogs, multimedia content and much more from an international network of organizations and institutions. Aggregating diverse and highly dispersed content helps to make hidden data available to everyone. Nurture the information ecosystem by linking land databases, bringing fragmented data collections together and enriching content with metadata that complies with Open Data standards and principles. Fostering a healthy and diverse ecosystem of land-related information helps to improve the potential impact of data and ensures information is easily searchable and discoverable. Stimulate debate among those working on land-related issues around the world through events, discussions and webinars. Online and offline dialogues help raise awareness of hidden issues (e.g. sexual extortion in the land sector) and provide opportunities for collaboration between diverse groups and organizations. Visualize and synthesize data from diverse sources into unique portfolios of contextualized and actionable land governance information. Our thematic and country portfolios provide free virtual repositories of bibliographic and multimedia resources, helping to reveal new trends and expose existing gaps in the information landscape. Support information providers from the land sector to utilize Open Data standards and encourage the creation and uptake of a standards-based data infrastructure based upon FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable) principles. The increased adoption of commonly agreed data standards is helping information derived from local groups, national organizations and international institutions to coexist within the wider information ecosystem. Explain and monitor indicators on land governance including the Sustainable Development Goals, the Voluntary Guidelines on the Responsible Governance of Tenure (VGGTs) and other international/regional frameworks for land monitoring. Showcasing and examining land monitoring instruments is helping to raise awareness and increase uptake of key indicators. completed Land Portal Foundation Keppelerdijk 87 Enschede 7534 PA the Netherlands info@landportal.org https://landportal.org i0 continual Forest Landscape Restoration Forest Tenure Indigenous Communities Land & Climate Change Land Conflicts Land Degradation & Tenure Land in Post-Conflict Settings Land & Corruption Land & Food Security Land & Gender Land & Investments Rangelands, Drylands & Pastoralism Urban Tenure Land Monitoring Global Spatial scope Land LSC categories otherRestrictions unknown en utf8 society 1 -180 180 -90 90 https://www.landportal.org/ WWW:LINK Website https://git.wur.nl/isric/lsc-hubs/rwanda-hub/-/blob/rwanda/portals/Africa/landportal/landportal.yml canonical Source of the record canonical dataset continual
