This lecture discusses the challenges posed by urbanization, focusing on the pressure on city outskirts due to new arrivals, the issue of widespread mobility, and the four main challenges for future African cities: the right to the city, environmental concerns, reducing mobility, and rethinking democracy. It also explores the impact of energy consumption on prosperity, the social injustice caused by unequal access to mobility, and the complexities of participatory democracy in urban planning.
