Background of participants

…through a partnership with FIG you support the work of the federation

“FIG, as a recognised NGO, will work closely with their partners as well as the global family of UN organisations to support solutions to the 21st-century global challenges of climate change, food security, social justice and urbanization. A partnership with FIG means partnership with our profession, society and Earth at the same time” – Rudolf Staiger, FIG President

FIG works towards

• supporting the development of a new generation of global surveyors working at the local level – surveyors who are aware of the global issues and contribute solutions to the global agenda, while also being able to identify, initiate and foster research and to develop a clear professional and scientific vision
•  securing the scalability of tenure solutions
• embracing and manage the change to encourage the use of innovation, scalable approaches to recording and securing land rights, including informal and customary rights. This will include fit-for-purpose land administration and property valuation solutions.

FIG works closely with multi-national corporations, national companies and small to medium-sized businesses through a strategic long-term partnership which generate a mutual beneficial Return on Investment and creates shared value. Please note that with the membership comes a membership certificate which you are welcome to use incl. the FIG logo to show that you are member of FIG – of the international community – but it is not and cannot be used as a certification of your actual work and projects in your company. FIG does not have a certification system and a membership of FIG does not give a formal approval of the work of your company.
