Accurate #population data is critical for effective governance. It guides policy, urban planning, and the allocation of resources to where they're needed most. We're creating a guide to population data sources so they can lead to smarter, more equitable decisions for countries.

These cities are set to become Africa’s top 10 largest urban agglomerations by 2050, shaping the continent’s economy and future. As populations rise, so will the need for smarter planning, inclusive policies, and sustainable infrastructure. Is your city on the list?

These are the most populated countries in #Africa, home to a significant share of the continent’s human capital. With growing cities, dynamic markets, and youthful populations, they continue to impact the continent significantly.

Africa’s total urban footprint is projected to expand from 175,000 to 450,000 km² in 2050. This rapid growth is an opportunity to rethink urban planning, infrastructure investment, and land use policies to ensure sustainable and equitable development across the continent.
