Policy briefs

To foster an evidence-based debate across the African continent and with its global partners, the Urban 2063 Coalition produced eight policy briefs on a series of closely linked topics.

The first four briefs are diagnostic, outlining how various trends create a challenging context for the advancement of sustainable urbanisation.
The last set of four policy briefs is propositional, providing an agenda for the work and partnerships of the Urban2063 Coalition.
