The MIT Sustainable Urbanization Lab and the Charter Cities Institute are co-hosting the 2022 New Cities Conference in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
A railway journey to new colonialism in Africa? Not if the African Union (AU) can help it. The AU has a big, bold vision for African railways.
The West’s misconceptions about Africa are vast, particularly when it comes to the realm of business. Today we are joined by Dr. Deanne de Vries, who has worked across the continent in various capacities for over 30 years.
The Charter Cities Institute is set to attend the 2022 Concordia Annual Summit during the United Nations General Assembly. We hope to see you there!
Financial problems and bankruptcy of African railways should be expected, but we must hope that the vision of the African Union, patience and financial backing are sufficient to keep building railways. It’s the long-term wealth created by urbanization, industrialization and export-led growth that will create wealth to pay for railways.
The Charter Cities Institute is a 501(c)3 nonprofit dedicated to empowering new cities with better governance to lift tens of millions of people out of poverty.
