Agenda

3. Africa’s explosive demographic growth
 The African population is growing
at a rate of 2.4% a year.
 It is estimated that by 2030, 50% of
Africans will live in cities;
 The African workforce will reach
1.1 billion people by 2040 - the
largest in the world ( McKinsey);
 And by 2050, Africa will be home to
1.9 Billion people.

4. Africa is facing an urban challenge
 By 2040 Africa is expected to be the
2nd
most urbanized continent after
China.
 At current urbanization rates, an
additional 14 million housing units
per annum are needed in order to
accommodate the increasing urban
demand.
 62% of the populations living in
Africa’s cities ( 32 million
households) live in informal
housing where basic services are
poor or non-existent.

5. Africa faces a large gap in low income housing
Region Demand Supply
Sub- Saharan
Africa
 32 million households in Sub-Saharan Africa are
considered inadequate.
 Under current urbanisation rates , an additional 14
million housing units per annum are required
 308 million people; 191 million of whom live
in inadequate housing.
Kenya  60% of households are considered ‘inadequate’ housing
and are located in slums.
 150,000 units are required per year
 Less than 30,000 units supplied per year
 The annual deficit is thus more than 120,000
housing units per year
Ghana  Ghana’s annual demand for housing currently stands at
120,000 housing units per annum
 Current housing supply provides 42,000 units
per annum which is only 35% of the demand
Nigeria  33.6 million Nigerians living in urban areas (46% of the
urban population) are considered to be living in
inadequate housing
 The annual deficit is 16 million units
 720,000 units need to be created annually to
meet the demand
 Current supply is however meeting only 3%
of this demand
Tanzania  80% of the entire population is living in unplanned,
informal housing.
 The housing deficit in urban areas is
estimated at 1.2 million units.

6. The response to the African urban explosion
must not be, more unplanned and poorly
serviced developments.
Africa should learn from the mistakes of
many European and American cites that
allowed the development of social enclaves,
which became the source of insecurity,
social tension and frustration for the low
income population.
The demand for housing should be met
through the development of suburban
mixed income communities that offer a
healthy social environment, and economic
opportunities.
Vision for African Affordable housing
The vision of Urbanis Africa is to enable the
ordinary Africans, most of whom are active
in the informal sector, to acquire a house
within their financial means and raise their
families in a safe, clean, healthy
environment with access to world class
education and economic opportunities. In so
doing, Urbanis achieves social impact,
environmental and financial returns.
Urbanis aims to implement its model across
the African continent, and will encourage
many developers to emulate its model.

7. The mission of Urbanis Africa is to enable
the majority of Africans living in cities to
have an opportunity to own a house, work
and raise a family, in a clean and family-
friendly environment.

communities across the continent that
implement state of the art, low carbon
