Under the broader theme of “Adequate Housing for All: Advancing Socio-economic and Environmental Transformation towards the realization of Agenda 2063,” Resilient40 dynamic youth-led convening (Side Event) at the Second Africa Urban Forum brought together young leaders, urban practitioners, policymakers and innovators from across Africa.
As the continent faces accelerating urbanization, deepening housing deficits, and intensifying climate impacts, the side event will spotlight the critical role of African youth in shaping inclusive, resilient and sustainable cities.
What we achieved:
1. Youth-driven perspectives on housing justice and urban equity
2. Innovative solutions at the intersection of climate resilience and urban development
3. Interactive dialogue on redefining urban futures through youth leadership
4. Opportunities to connect, collaborate, and co-create actionable pathways forward
This was more than a conversation — it became a platform for young Africans to define urban development in the face of the housing and climate crisis.
