👉 The Parcel Project is an initiative led by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) aimed at transforming how urban areas manage and utilize small parcels of land, typically less than 1 hectare, often found in informal settlements. It seeks to formalize land tenure, improve access to services, and enhance urban planning and development by creating a structured framework for these parcels. By providing legal recognition, secure tenure, and access to resources, the project empowers residents in informal settlements to invest in their communities, fostering economic growth and social stability. It also aims to integrate these parcels into broader urban development plans, promoting sustainable and inclusive city growth.
