Bol This book examines how economic resilience and sustainable development can be achieved within Southern African cities through the integration of Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) into urban planning. This book examines how economic resilience and sustainable development can be achieved within Southern African cities through the integration of Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) into urban planning. It combats the challenges poised by rapid urbanisation, something that it exacerbated by climate change and weak infrastructure, through economic policy and practice that addresses the unique social, political, and environmental conditions found within the region. Evidence-based and empirical case studies are presented to highlight real-world successes and offer tangible solutions. Particular focus is given to land management within developing cities, infrastructure planning for resilience, climate change adaptation, institutional development, and community engagement. This book presents a multidisciplinary framework to navigate Southern African cities through uncertainty and towards sustainable development. It will be relevant to students, researchers, and policymakers interested in development, African studies, and urban economics.
