Infrastructure in Africa

"Connectivity in terms of physical and financial system infrastructure is indispensable in realising the full benefits of regional integration and wider development of Africa. This book provides much needed ample insight into the conundrum of infrastructure development on the African continent." Louis Kasekende (PhD.), Deputy Governor Bank of Uganda
"As Africa’s population doubles in the next two decades, it is vital that infrastructure keeps up, or stays ahead. Transport, sanitation, water, electricity, communications technology and social infrastructure are all vital to ensure flourishing communities across the continent. This book spells out that the development of each is challenging but within reach.” Ngaire Woods, Dean of Blavatnik School of Government, University of Oxford
"Everybody agrees that Africa has an infrastructure deficit, but there is less agreement on how it should be filled, which sectors to prioritize, at which level, and how it should be financed. This comprehensive and wide-ranging book addresses all these questions, contributing both rigor and balance to the debate." Shantayanan Devarajan, Chief Economist, Middle East and North Africa Region, World Bank
“With continued interest from foreign investors and the regional appetite for PPPs, Africa is poised to ride out the oil crisis and meet its infrastructure development goals. This book addresses some of the pressing issues of African infrastructure.” Jean-Claude Bastos de Morais, Founder and Chairman of the Advisory Board, Quantum Global Group
