Abstract

There is no doubt that the armed conflict is development in reverse that brings about a severe wastage of human capital and infrastructures. The ongoing violence over the last half a decade in Syria has caused serious economic devastation and a massive loss of properties, landlessness, and lack of clarity relating to ownership or use rights. Post-conflict reconstruction is essential as it assigns the future shape of the country, and it is mostly determined by the commitment and capacities of local populations, including national government and civil society, to maintain the process. Therefore, it is necessary to identify the challenges, obstacles, and issues inhibiting the approach of restoring and sustainably developing the current system. Building a potential cadastral system for post-conflict Syria requires practical contributions from all stakeholders to explore possible ideas that may come up with other procedures for solving many legal, political, and technical issues. The design of a clear strategic framework for modernizing cadastral infrastructure will provide more excellent social stability and expand the prospects for economic growth within post-conflict communities. The main objective of this research is to describe a proposed approach for a reconstruction process oriented towards building an electronic multipurpose cadastre in support of sustainable development from an international perspective in line with modern technology. The addressed model ensures unified real estate registration and simplifies the information interchange between agencies.
