The Growth Challenge--Can Ugandan Cities Get to Work?
Rapports et recherchesRessources et Outils d'entraînementfévrier, 2015Ouganda, AfriqueThis Fifth Edition of the Uganda Economic Update presents evidence that if the urbanization process is well managed, it has the potential to stimulate economic growth and to provide productive jobs for a greater proportion of Uganda’s young and rapidly expanding population.
