Urban water management challenges versus intitutional and economic capacities in African cities (2012)

This layer shows limits pose by challenges and capacities to African cities. Although the main challenges in terms of magnitude exist in the larger cities, these are also relatively better-placed in terms of institutional and economic capacity to address the problems through economies of scale. Most smaller cities lack this advantage and clearly need to focus on capacity-building as a necessary step towards improving their water and wastewater management systems.
