International Development Agency (Sida).The paper is written in three discrete chapters.
The first chapter presents an assessment of the prevailing macroeconomic situation. The
second chapter analyses the extent of land ownership, access to land, land inequality and

Working Paper 20: Social Assessment of Land in Cambodia: A Field Study
So Sovannarith, Real Sopheap, Uch Utey, Brett Ballard and Sarthi Acharya (Nov. 2001)
This paper, which is a revised version of the report prepared by CDRI for the government,
presents the findings of an assessment made after visiting selected field settings and
interviewing people, authorities and concerned donor agencies. In preparation for an
undertaking of a comprehensive land measurement, titling and registration process, the
Ministry of Land Management, Urban Planning and Construction considered it appropriate
to first conduct a social assessment to collect data which would facilitate proper targeting
of land titles and registration activities; ensure a fair deal to vulnerable sectors of society;
highlight socio-cultural and gender factors requiring special consideration; and assess the
institutional feasibility of a land titling and registration project.
