ILDC is one of the biggest annual international conferences in the Global South that connects conversations on land and development.  By bringing together a diverse range of stakeholders — researchers, policymakers, practitioners, civil society actors, and private sector professionals — it catalyses collective reflection, learning, and action around critical land questions imperative for development, locally and globally.

After, moving from Delhi to Bengaluru and with last years in Pune, ILDC comes to historic and progressive city of Ahmedabad, with unique distinction of several prominent institutions working on and around diversity of land issues and disciplines, in government, academics, private sector, technology and CSO spaces, many being earlier partners and collaborators. In this city where tradition meets modernity, ILDC is looking forward to unprecedented participation and unparalleled conversations.

In the final stretch toward the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), ILDC 2025 highlights land not just as a resource, but as a site of power, identity, struggle, and opportunity. This year’s theme — “Centrality of Land and Sustainable Development” — foregrounds land as a pivotal driver of justice, resilience, and transformation across multiple sectors and geographies. As climate transitions intensify, cities expand, agrarian livelihoods shift, and indigenous and women’s rights gain global recognition, land remains central to enabling inclusive and sustainable futures.

ILDC continues to provide an unique and inclusive convergence platform for the inter-sectoral actors to engage in interdisciplinary conversation around all such land-matters, as increasingly land matters more for achieving sustainable development and climate resilience.

With a strong commitment to southern thinking, inclusivity, and collaboration, ILDC has emerged as a space that goes beyond technical conversations, creating a community of practice that values knowledge co-creation, grounded realities, and ethical engagement.
