Security & Urban Resilience
Personal safety and crisis resilience are prerequisites for urban development. This axis measures a city's ability to protect its residents and recover quickly from shocks.
Why this axis matters in Africa
Rapid urbanization in Africa creates areas vulnerable to flooding, fires and insecurity. Emergency services are often undersized and response times too long.
Measured indicators
Police/fire response time (target < 20 min)
Coverage of functional 24/7 emergency numbers
Existence of a natural disaster management plan
Safety perception measured by citizen survey
