Report on urbanization data and statistics in Africa
Abstract
The importance of urbanization as a driver for inclusive growth in Africa is now well recognized. The African Union’s Agenda 2063, the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the Common African Position towards the United Nations Conference on Housing and Sustainable Development all emphasize the role of urbanization in Africa’s transformation. A key objective of the urbanization program of the Economic Commission for Africa (ECA) is to support member States in strengthening their urbanization data and help them with their statistics needs for effective policy formulation, implementation and monitoring. The present report is therefore a summary of the findings from the assessment and issues for consideration in developing the African Program on Urbanization Data and Statistics.
