Not Your African ClichéNYAC S4 E5: Informal Settlements, Inequality and African CitiesWe are joined by special guest Wandile Mthiyane (@Wandile7) of Ubuntu Design Group to work through the questions: how did African cities come to be?

We discuss informal settlements and the circumstances that result in their existence and ask, how do we support people who live in informal settlements without being paternalistic? How do we be better neighbors to them? We close the episode by sharing our vision for African Cities.
