Tajik Leaders Consider Australian Example for Land Code Reforms
Recently, the USAID Tajikistan Land Reform and Market Development Project organized a study tour for a group of Tajik government officials and parliamentarians to Australia, where, like in Tajikistan, all land is owned by the state. The tour aimed to facilitate the approval of major changes to the Land Code that the USAID project helped to prepare. If adopted, these changes would allow trading and mortgaging of land in Tajikistan. The study tour showed Tajik officials how a land and mortgage market can function in a setting of state-ownership of land, and to demonstrate a property registration system that supports such a market.
The Land Reform and Market Development Project, implemented by Chemonics, assists the Government of Tajikistan to develop market oriented, land-related policies and legislation and to implement the land reform and farm restructuring process. The project provides technical assistance to the government’s Working Group on Structural and Land Reforms, which was set up to review and revise land reform legislation.
