African Cities Voices

Making African urban voices heard across places and disciplines.

The challenge

A platform amplifying the people, projects and ideas shaping African cities.

Urban knowledge is too often separated by language, discipline and geography. Many practitioners and communities shaping African cities remain absent from the wider conversation.

Our approach

Designed to become useful in practice.

From idea to lasting capability.

Produce interviews, conversations and accessible urban stories.

Connect local experience with research and practice.

Create multilingual editorial formats for wider circulation.

Build a living network of African urban voices.

What it enables

Knowledge that supports action.

  • Greater visibility for African urban expertise
  • Knowledge shared across audiences
  • New connections between people and places
  • A more diverse urban conversation
