Abstract
Urban Health in Africa explores the rapid urbanization shaping health and sustainability across African cities. Edited by Elaine O. Nsoesie and Blessing U. Mberu, the volume brings together interdisciplinary case studies addressing issues such as informal settlements, air pollution, transportation, sanitation, mental health, and emerging digital health interventions including a case study focused on digital health prospects in Nairobi. The book examines how evidence-based policy, community resilience, and innovative infrastructure can support healthier, more equitable urban futures across the continent.
