During the years 2009 – 2011 the former Land and Natural Resources Research and Information Center (LNRRIC) under the National Land Management Authority (NLMA), now the Natural Resources and Environment Information Center (NREIC) under the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment (MoNRE), supported by the GIZ – Land Management and Registration Project (LMRP), has carried out a spatially explicit national inventory of land concessions in Laos. The inventory will allow capturing, visualizing and analyzing the extent and dimensions of the concession phenomena for the entire Lao PDR.
