WB gives thumbs up to land titling project
Manila Bulletin
|August 23, 2025
The World Bank has noted improved implementation of an extended loan that supports breaking down collective certificates of land ownership awards (CLOAs), or titles given to agrarian reform beneficiaries (ARBs) in the Philippines.
In an Aug. 21 implementation status and results report seen by Manila Bulletin, the Washington-based multilateral lender upgraded the overall implementation progress (IP) of the Support to Parcelization of Lands for Individual Titling (SPLIT) Project, being implemented by the Department of Agrarian Reform (DAR), to “moderately satisfactory” from “moderately unsatisfactory” previously.
The World Bank also upgraded the progress toward achieving the project development objective (PDO), which is to improve land tenure security and stabilize property rights of ARBs, to “moderately satisfactory” from “moderately unsatisfactory.”
