Rebuilding Angola's cities after conflict and who gets left behind / Allan Cain -- Conclusion: Towards a research agenda for knowledge coproduction in urban Africa / Sylvia Croese.The works contained in this edited volume represent the culmination of eight years of effort to plant and develop the foundation of an interdisciplinary African urban research network anchored in African institutions. With initial support from the Rockefeller Foundation and the Cities Alliance, the creation of the African Urban Research Initiative (AURI) network was subsequently fortified by the Ford Foundation’s call for scholarship oriented towards urbanism in the global South. Based at the African Centre for Cities at the University of Cape Town in South Africa, AURI was thus designed to support and, where needed, strengthen exist-ing urban research centres on the African continent to produce credible and robust new knowledge on urban conditions in African cities.Routledge studies in cities and development.UrbanizationAfricaCities and townsAfricaRural-urban migrationAfricaAfricaPopulationUrban communitiesDevelopment studiesUrbanizationCities and townsRural-urban migration307.76096Marrengane Ntombiniedt1356292Marrengane NtombiniCroese SylviaUkMaJRUBOOK9910476773203321Reframing the urban challenge in Africa3360623UNINA
