ACC is an interdisciplinary hub at the University of Cape Town with a mandate to conduct meaningful research on how to understand, recast and address pressing urban crises.

Applied Research

ACC produces rigorous applied urban research typified by a grounded criticality and a commitment to propositional thinking and experimentation.

Teaching & Learning

ACC is committed to preparing the next generation of scholars, practice leaders and teachers that are well- versed in sustainable urban development from a Global South perspective.

Public Discourse

ACC seeks to enrich both academic and policy research through vibrant public engagement. It is essential to not only make our work accessible to diverse publics, but also to recognise that the curation of public discourse is in itself a form of knowledge production.

Policy Advocacy

ACC is a knowledge partner to public sector actors to help ensure formulation and
implementation of policies  that will produce contextual, inclusive and sustainable forms of urbanism in the global South, and especially in Africa.
