Answer to Question #240651 in English for Monique

Question

Discuss the impact of urbanization on the african continent in terms of human settlement, employment, and service delivery

Answer 1

Settlement: Urbanization affects human settlement positively in that villages progressively grow into small towns, smaller towns turn out to be larger towns, and larger cities develop into cities. Thus this trend has facilitated the development of mega-cities.

Employment: urbanization provides job opportunities in Africa; most people have moved from rural areas to urban areas to fill the employment gap

Service delivery: urban centers have the most advanced transport network and telecommunication infrastructure, thus improving service delivery.
