Africa’s Voice: The World Becomes Urban

TODAY, the world becomes more urban than ever. More and more people leave to make their life in cities. African countries, said UCLG AFRICA’s Secretary General Mr. Mr. Jean-Pierre Elong Mbassi, is also experiencing this phenomena and that’s why, “More attention is needed from any local government in how to deal with the growing movement of people from villages to cities.”

This statement was said by Mr. Mbassi when he met Ms. Atik Kumala, UCLG ASPAC’s Strategic Services Manager from Jakarta in the 1st Retreat for UCLG Secretariats, Committees, and Key Partners in Barcelona, Spain this mid February 2015.
