Colombia has a public multipurpose cadastre policy, which will allow for an updated, reliable cadastre, consistent with the real estate registry system, digital and interoperable with other information systems. https://www.igac.gov.co/sites/igac.gov.co/files/dnp.pdf

This policy proposes to reach 100% coverage by 2025, with a multipurpose approach, and providing mechanisms for financial sustainability and permanent updating.

However, this system has some opportunities for improvement and one of them is linked to blockchain and how it could provide the cadastre with adequate information security instruments, especially in a country subject to such particular political and social conditions.

Security in the cadastre is security in land information, an instrument for its proper implementation and therefore an instrument for the fight against poverty.

There are fundamental entities that need to be advised and accompanied in this purpose, which would be achieved by giving them adequate information about the Blockchain system and how to access its use.

Through a specific consultancy for the management of Blockchain for cadastral projects to the National Planning Department, a great step forward in this matter would be achieved.

This is why the project is intended to provide advice on this matter through a dedicated team, which will review the status of the implementation of the cadastre and will provide a public policy proposal document for the implementation of blockchain in the current cadastral policy in Colombia.

This is a proposal specifically aimed at providing a nation with a blockchain solution to protect collective and individual data and properties which are constituted by the cadastral information of private and public real estate. At the same time it takes into account the ideas of Hernando de Soto, given that the multi-property cadastre is one of the most appropriate instruments for the formalization of property and to guarantee it, especially in countries where dispossession and property invasions have already generated a lot of damage.

The risks of this project are especially centered on the difficulty of accessing the officials responsible for the multipurpose cadastre policy in Colombia. There is also a risk regarding the implementation of the proposal that will be submitted to the government through the National Planning Department.

The first phase consists of a process of approaching the responsible officials of the National Planning Department, which will allow both obtaining information about the implementation project and informing them about this advisory service, which will be provided at no cost to them.

The second phase consists of the analysis of the current situation of the cadastre project from public policy, its impact and what would be the role of the blockchain against it.

The third phase is the structuring of the blockchain implementation proposal within the cadastre project.

The fourth phase in the communication of the proposal to the National Planning Department through the responsible officials.

Each phase has an estimated duration of one month.

For the development of this project we will work with three specialists:

A specialist in Public Policies for Development, a specialist in Multipurpose Cadastre and a specialist in Blockchain.

A cost per month of the specialists is estimated for an estimated time of four months.

US$1500.00X3X4: US$18,000.00

The additional costs of meetings, graphics or travel costs will be assumed by the specialists.

It will be linked to a Blockchain specialist from the Cardano community

The evolution of the project can be followed permanently in a progress document that will be public. To this end, the monthly report will determine an advance by percentage of each of the four determined stages, which will be the guide of the work plan.

The success of this proposal is having a document that determines the route for the implementation of the blockchain in the multipurpose cadastre policy. And the delivery of this document to the National Planning Department through the respective officials.

This is a new proposal, built especially for this challenge, considering the interests and knowledge of the members.
