SUMMARY:Africa’s Urban Futures
DESCRIPTION:Colloque international organisé par le Geneva Africa Lab de l’U
 niversité de Genève et la Société suisse d’études africaines.\n\nWhile Afri
 ca is projected to have the highest urban growth rate in the world by 2050,
  nearly one in two African citizens – that’s over 500 million people – alre
 ady lives in cities. Long seen as ‘ungovernable’, ‘fragile’ or ‘anarchic’, 
 due in part, to the proliferation of slums, uncontrolled urbanization, poor
  governance and criminal activity, African metropolises however, are also c
 elebrated as places of cultural, infrastructural, political and social crea
 tion. African urban formations simultaneously emerge as spaces of social tr
 ansformation, circulation of ideas and innovation, and the loci for potenti
 al covetousness and (societal) conflict. This international conference focu
 ses therefore on a variety of urban-related issues emerging on the African 
 continent in order to generate fresh insight on our urban world ‘yet to com
 e’ (to paraphrase Abdoumaliq Simone) from a Southern urbanisms perspective 
 that sees African cities as sites from which we can learn globally.\n\nProg
