What does the future hold for Africa’s cities? What drives urbanization on the continent and how does it interact with socio-economic development? In addition to answering these questions, Julia Bello-Schünemann and Ciara Aucoin explore the tests that await Africa’s current and emerging megacities, which include exclusion and inequality, urban violence, poor governance, and the need for sustained economic growth.
