Chapter 1. Introduction: a framework for realizing the SDGs in African cities -- Chapter 2. Localizing the SDGs in Africa: debunking assumptions and reviewing experiences -- Chapter 3. Unpacking SDG localization in eThekwini, South Africav -- Chapter 4. How data-ready are African Governments to Monitor SDG Progress -- Chapter 5. Reporting on the SDGs: South Africa’s Voluntary National Review process -- Chapter 6. SDG indicators for health outcomes in South African cities -- Chapter 7. Citizen-centric approaches to achieving the SDGs in Africa -- Chapter 8. Financing the SDGs in African cities -- Chapter 9. The future of SDGs in Africa.

This volume brings together a unique set of interventions from a variety of contributors to bridge the gap between research and policy with a distinct focus on Africa, drawing on work conducted as part of multiple interconnected research projects and networks on the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and global policy implementation in African cities. Through the framework of the SDGs, and in particular Goal 11, the book aims to contribute to generating new knowledge about approaches to SDG localization that are grounded in complex and diverse local contexts, needs and realities, integrated perspectives and collaborative research. The volume draws together contributions from urban experts from different professional and disciplinary backgrounds, ranging from the fields of governance, planning, data, sustainability, health and finance, to provide critical insight into the current dynamics, actors, blind spots, constraints and also good practices and opportunities for realizing the SDGs in Africa. Readers will gain detailed and informed insight into the African experience of SDG localization, monitoring and implementation based on multiple case studies, and will learn of the practices needed to accelerate action towards achieving the SDGs in urban contexts. This book will be of interest to researchers and planners focusing on SDGs implementation in Africa, as well as government organizations, development practitioners and students committed to long-term, inclusive sustainable and participatory development.
