This webinar is organized by Fondazione Eni Enrico Mattei in collaboration with the I and II Level Specialising Master \u201cDesign for Development. Architecture, Urban Planning and Heritage in the Global South\u201d Politecnico di Milano – DAStU<\/a>\/Poliedra<\/a>.<\/b>

In this webinar, Catherine Kalisa (UN-Habitat) and Christian Benimana (MASS Design Group) will discuss the topic of urban sustainability<\/b>\u00a0and the concepts of\u00a0urban circularity<\/b>\u00a0and\u00a0resilience\u00a0<\/b>with reference to the development and planning of African cities.

The planet Earth is facing a\u00a0climate emergency<\/b>. Economic and population growth are the most relevant drivers of increases in CO2 emission from fossil fuel combustion. Notably, cities produce 50% of global waste and 60-80% of GHG emissions. Meanwhile, the population is expected to increase by 2 billion persons in the next 30 years, the Sub-Saharan African region<\/i>\u00a0is projected to double the population by 2050.\u00a0African cities\u00a0<\/i>are suffering a\u00a0bold development<\/i> most often without the benefit of policies or investments able to meet these challenges. This is the time to intervene in order to enhance the administration and liveability of\u00a0urban agglomerations<\/i>. This meeting wants to quest if there is space for concepts as\u00a0circularity\u00a0<\/i>and\u00a0resilience\u00a0<\/i>in African cities. Those two concepts were born in Europe, but today lower and middle-income economies are more \u2018circular\u2019 and \u2018resilient\u2019 than their counterparts in high-income countries, and a shift towards a sustainable living might be more intuitive and immediate.
