This volume brings together a unique set of interventions
from a variety of contributors to bridge the gap between research
and policy with a distinct focus on Africa, drawing on work
conducted as part of multiple interconnected research projects and
networks on the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and global
policy implementation in African cities. Through the framework of
the SDGs, and in particular Goal 11, the book aims to
contribute to generating new knowledge about approaches to SDG
localization that are grounded in complex and diverse local
contexts, needs and realities, integrated perspectives and
collaborative research. The volume draws together
contributions from urban experts from different professional and
disciplinary backgrounds, ranging from the fields of governance,
planning, data, sustainability, health and finance, to provide
critical insight into the current dynamics, actors, blind spots,
constraints and also good practices and opportunities for realizing
the SDGs in Africa. Readers will gain detailed and informed
insight into the African experience of SDG localization,
monitoring and implementation based on multiple case studies, and
will learn of the practices needed to accelerate action
towards achieving the SDGs in urban contexts. This book will be of
interest to researchers and planners focusing on SDGs
implementation in Africa, as well as government organizations,
development practitioners and students committed to long-term,
inclusive sustainable and participatory development. This is an
open access book. Chapters 1, 3, 6, 8, 11 and 14 are available open
