National Land Use Guidelines

National Land Use Guidelines are policies that help organize how land is developed and preserved across a country. They provide a framework to ensure land is used efficiently, sustainably, and responsibly—balancing development needs, environmental protection, agriculture, and recreation. These guidelines help local governments and developers plan urban growth, protect natural resources, and prevent issues like over-construction or environmental degradation. Overall, they aim to promote safe, equitable, and sustainable land use for present and future generations.
