This phase will mostly run concurrently with the implementation phase. Its main components are assets capitalization and good governance. The activities in this phase will involve formulation and implementation of recommendations for connecting the newly formalized properties to national, regional and international markets, and allowing property to be leveraged to create capital and generate more wealth.

The process will entail setting up of credit and mortgage systems, and collection systems for credit, rates and taxes; provision of housing and infrastructure; provision of insurance and information services, development of individual identification system; and use of property to enhance accountability.

The recommendations will facilitate good governance by providing reliable information about market behaviours, property status and the extent of the rule of law; all of which are necessary conditions for sustainable development.

Simplification of Administrative Procedures
Simplification of administrative procedures will be implemented though the decentralized systems to reduce “red tape” in matters of property and business formalization and to improve documentation at the local level in order to entrench the culture of transparency and accountability through the use of formal communication channel

Aligning Formalization to the Agenda on Legal Empowerment of the Poor
The mandate of the Agenda on Legal Empowerment of the Poor is to explore how nations can reduce poverty through reforms that expand access to legal protection and economic opportunities for ll. The agenda has four pillars for legal empowerment of the poor, these include, access to justice and the rule of la; Property Rights; Labour Rights and Business Rights.

MKURABITA’s mandate is directly related to the second and fourth pillars and indirectly linked to the first and third pillars. Although MKURABITA is currently organized around two pillars i.e. property rights and business rights, implementation of its work plan will always relate to other ongoing programs that are set to impellent the other two pillars. It is significant however, to emphasize the fact that MKURABITA seeks to translate the property and business/entrepreneur rights to tangible and intangible benefits to the targeted beneficiaries. To that end the Program will, while borrowing healingly forms the Legal Empowerment Concepts, develop targeted initiatives that use formal assets to improve earnings of the owners.
