ICLEI-Local Governments for Sustainability Africa (ICLEI Africa) is collaborating with Konrad Adenauer Stiftung (KAS) Tanzania to publish a series of thought pieces on Urban Resilience and Local Governance in Tanzania. This short-term project draws upon ICLEI-Africa’s vast experience working in Tanzania’s urban sector and seeks to explore urban resilience in the country’s main urban centres from various perspectives. It is also in line with KAS Tanzania’s interest in urbanisation and resilience issues from a political lens.
