Date: 2 July 2015

The IGC Ethiopia Country Programme partnered with the Ethiopian Development Research Institute (EDRI) to find solutions to Ethiopian growth challenges, based on independent research of the highest quality.

The Urbanisation Workshop was part of a broader research programme, “Urbanisation in Africa and Developing Economies", led by researchers at the University of Oxford and the London School of Economics and Political Science. It was a unique event that brought together world-class researchers and senior policy makers to discuss key urbanisation issues relevant to Ethiopia and other African countries such as job creation and investment in city infrastructure.
