African cities have an unprecedented opportunity to shape a sustainable, resilient and inclusive urban future. To do this, they must now respond to the intense pressures exerted by populations and activities and face unprecedented climatic and health challenges.

How can cities catalyze the structural transformation of the continent? What levers should be mobilized to simultaneously promote social and economic development while ensuring the resilience of services and infrastructure in the face of climate change? What governance model can perform these missions?

Energy, building, mobility, training, capacity building, urban services… France Ville Durable and Construction21 propose, through this dossier, to draw up a panorama of projects, solutions and precursor training for African cities.

For an overview of the articles, find the press release of the dossier.
