The sheer magnitude of urban growth on the continent and its impact on the three dimensions of sustainable development, sustainable urbanization lies at the heart of the continent’s transformative development agenda. The rapid urbanization occurring in Africa presents strong opportunities for urbanization to be redefined and developed in a sustainable, inclusive, gender and culturally sensitive manner. (...) Poor urban infrastructure only exacerbates this challenge, hindering municipal transportation, waste removal, communication and electricity services. To keep pace with rapid urbanization in Africa there needs to be strengthened capacity for planning, revenue generation and collection, financial governance and, data gathering and analysis. (...) Poverty and urban inequalities in African cities remain close to the highest in the world, with vulnerable populations and marginalized groups, especially women and youth, greatly affected by the complex challenges associated with rapid urban growth. Experience shows, however, that a combination of providing equitable and better services alongside adequate mobility can effectively address the issues stemming from the widening rural-urban divide and contribute to effectively manage urban growth.
