Overview

The hallmark of Ethiopian urbanisation is the critical role played by the large number of emerging towns spread over the vast rural landscape where the greatest part of the Ethiopian population resides. Amdework is one of these towns. Transforming the huge potential of emerging towns for sustainable development into reality requires diagnostic, analytical, and planning capacities. These capacities have to be inclusive, spatially specific, and systemic. Dedicated to this endeavour, this book assembles cartographic, narrative-based, and metabolic approaches in a participatory and stakeholder-engaged way. The authors construct a profile that reveals a broader geographic view of the processes that underpin the functioning, growth, and development of Amdework. AUTHOR: Marco Ranzato is an architect and holds a PhD in Environmental Engineering. He has worked and collaborated with different academic contexts as the Delft University of Technology, the Tongji University (China) and the Universite Libre de Bruxelles.
