This is a description of research in general.The African Centre for Cities (ACC) aims to generate credible new  knowledge on the drivers of urban crises in African cities and to develop systemic solutions. This involves conducting  rigorous research using both qualitative and quantitative methods, contributing high-quality, peer-reviewed academic  literature, and ensuring the knowledge produced is relevant locally and globally.

The ACC focuses on identifying key  issues such as rapid urbanization, poverty, and inadequate infrastructure, understanding the complex interplay of socio-economic, political, and environmental factors, and developing holistic approaches to address these root causes.

Their work translates into actionable policies and sustainable development practices tailored to the unique contexts of  African cities, enhancing local capacity and fostering collaborative efforts among various stakeholders.
