Team
Our five lead partners bring together experienced staff with expertise in various fields relevant to urban development. They collaborate and form transdisciplinary teams for projects in sub-Saharan cities and regions in Africa. Certainly, projects have many more partners; especially local partners in each city are particularly crucial. Hence, all five lead partners invite potential allies to reach out and join forces. Together, we can make a meaningful contribution to make better African cities. On this page, you can find contact information and experts from each of the five lead partners of DASUDA Foundation. We are happy to share minds.
