Governing the urban fringes: the impacts of Africa’s urban growth on peri-urban areas
The rapid expansion of Africa’s cities is considered as one of the continent’s main socio-economic challenges.
Unlike in Europe, North America and East Asia, the spatial trend of urban expansion in sub-Saharan Africa is horizontal. Rather than growing upward through taller buildings, Africa’s cities expand into their peri-urban rural outskirts. Thus, peri-urban areas are undergoing considerable spatial, socio-economic and administrative change: farmland is absorbed by buildings and commercial activities, land prices are spiking and new class dynamics can be observed.
NATO: 75 Years of Strategic Solidarity
The war in Ukraine, burden-sharing between Allies, U.S. disengagement from Europe, new areas of conflict...

As such, it seems inexorably destined to (re)become an essential issue for the navies in charge of securing maritime activities.
