Climate resilience for Africa's urban poor starts with housing

Original: Climate resilience begins at home: Why housing matters for Africa’s urban poor

Habitat for Humanity argues that climate resilience for Africa's fast-growing urban poor begins with adequate housing. The organisation says homes built to withstand floods, heat and storms are a first line of defence for low-income city dwellers, urging greater investment in safe, affordable shelter as climate risks intensify across African cities.

Why now: Rising climate threats to vulnerable urban communities in Africa have put housing at the centre of resilience debates.
