Land and Development Expertise Center (LADEC), is a Burundian social enterprise working to promote good land governance and other natural resources. LADEC was created in 2017, capitalising on the solid experience of its founding members in land issues within the framework of the implementation of the Swiss Cooperation's land project in Ngozi. Its work focuses mainly on research, capacity building and project management related to land certification, land conflict management and to gender and land issues. LADEC's ambition is to extend its intervention to the sectors of food security, environment and land use management.
