Durban City Context Report
Summary
The Durban City Context Report is part of a series of reports provided for each city of the Global Future Cities Programme, serving as a tool to frame the proposed Programme interventions within the characteristics and conditions of each city. The City Context Report provides a general analysis of the spatial, financial, and legal conditions in the city, followed by potential impact of the interventions, and a set of evidence-based recommendations for successful implementation and maximised benefits. In Durban, the two projects identified for Durban are: “Enhanced Institutional Governance Coordination for Supporting Alignment of Stakeholder Plans Working on Transit-Oriented Development on Durban” and “Improved Data Integration, Collection and Analysis to Facilitate Collaborative Informal Settlement Action”Country
