Making Africa Work

Sub-Saharan Africa faces three big challenges. Population will double to 2 billion by 2045. More than half of Africans will be living in cities. And this group of mostly young people will be connected via mobile devices. Properly planned for, this is a positive force for change. Without economic growth and jobs, it could prove a catastrophe as old systems of patronage and muddling through will no longer work. Making Africa Work is a handbook for how to promote growth in a more dynamic manner.
