Episode 4: Financing the City
As urban populations grow, so does the demand for infrastructure, housing, services, and initiatives. Traditional revenue streams and approaches often prove insufficient to address mounting expenses and challenges, particularly for developing economies. In this episode impact creators Carl Manlan and Nomahlubi Jakuja joined moderator Mandipa Ndlovu (ASCL Leiden) around the virtual table. They explore challenges of financing urban spaces, the power of public-private partnerships ad negotiation in realising sustainable growth in urban Africa.
