"As Lagos residents struggle with some of the world’s worst traffic congestion, an overlooked alternative is finally coming into clearer focus: water transport."

Knowing which population to use and trust (or not) is critical for many projects. We look forward to illuminating this important issue. #AfricasFuture#PopulationGrowth
Africa’s total urban footprint is projected to expand from 175,000 to 450,000 km² in 2050. This rapid growth is an opportunity to rethink urban planning, infrastructure investment, and land use policies to ensure sustainable and equitable development across the continent.
These are the most populated countries in #Africa, home to a significant share of the continent’s human capital. With growing cities, dynamic markets, and youthful populations, they continue to impact the continent significantly.
These cities are set to become Africa’s top 10 largest urban agglomerations by 2050, shaping the continent’s economy and future. As populations rise, so will the need for smarter planning, inclusive policies, and sustainable infrastructure.
Is your city on the list?
