Join the Sahel and West Africa Club (OECD/SWAC), the African Development Bank (AfDB), Cities Alliance and United Cities and Local Governments of Africa (UCLG Africa) for the launch of the 2025 edition of Africa’s Urbanisation Dynamics: Planning for Urban Expansion.
The 2025 report presents the most comprehensive projections to date of Africa’s future urbanisation dynamics and explores the implications for urban planning, governance and financing. The report builds on new Africapolis projections to 2050 of population growth and spatial expansion of over 11 000 urban agglomerations across the 54 countries of Africa.
The authors of the report will present key findings and discuss policy implications for urban planning, urban governance and urban finance for national and local governments.
The virtual launch will be held in English, with French interpretation available.
