The land in a continent as Africa is an economic resource, a basis of wealth promoting growth and human
development, and a tool of empowering and governing. Most of native africans are peasants and have their
main living and fundmuntal insfrastructures based on land and land resources. Then, land adminastrating and
management which are largelly tied to the diversity of the local cultural and traditional practicies should be
enhanced in a good and scientific manner. For such purpose, african universities will play a major role in
promoting a scientific revolution throught innovation and technology development. Certainly, every
university has its own scientific community living inside or abroad.
To make progress, it is indisponsible to gather universities efforts, create favorable conditions to drain african
brains, and encourage research to face many challengies in a world dominated by the knowledge economy.
Knowledge does not arise simply from having access to large amount of information but by exchanging ideas
to which values have been added by particular experience of each university context. Indeed, a consortium of
universities dealing with land information is extremely needed. The so called an African University
Consortium for Land Information Systems (AUCLIS) has the aim to establish a mechanism networking
universities that furnish education and training in land information systems and land information
management. As an academic consortium of researchers, it will provide a series of tools enabling
communication, development, and sharing of educational and research experiencies among the community of
universities specialised in LIS/LIM across Africa.
