More Resilient, Sustainable and Smart African Cities

Africa Urban Planning Imagery aims to capture, analyze, and promote African cities' mutations through satellite images. The purpose is also to show the history, diversity, originality, and complexity of urbanization in the continent.

Cities are a combination of a soul and a body. The body is the infrastructures, buildings, roads, etc. while the soul of the city is related to people, their cultures, and their behaviors. The purpose of the initiative Cities Pixels and Colors is to show the diversity and the singularity of the cities, especially in the African context. All the expression modes are welcome here to show the beauty of our cities. Photography, paintings, sketches, Illustrations, sculptures, etc.

How to make our cities more inclusive, resilient, sustainable, and improve the quality of life of all ? That is the main purpose of Urban planning innovation. We aim through this initiative to develop and promote innovative solutions contributing to building better places for all.

The body of a city is the shelter of his soul. With the rapid growth of populations in urban areas, is crucial to provide affordable housing for all, sustainable infrastructures, social facilities, and utilities. To reach these goals we need to develop new approaches and design in order to create inclusive cities. Through the initiative Architecture Innovations, we want to develop and promote original architecture solutions to facing cities’ challenges like climate change, housing for all, social inclusion, etc.

Architecture and urban heritage initiative seeks to highlight the richness of the African urban heritage to inspire the making of the modern city. . This is because today’s identity and tomorrow’s innovation are based on the genius of the past.
