Description
Embark on a transformative journey to explore 18 different slum communities in five West African countries located around the Gulf of Guinea (Nigeria, Bénin, Togo, Ghana, and Côte d'Ivoire). Experience their daily realities, and learn about their unique architecture, innovations, businesses, and challenges. As these centuries-old communities face rapid population growth, climate change, and even bulldozers, what needs to be done to preserve their homes?
Aboubacar Sidiki Komara is an architectural designer, local economic development specialist, and nonprofit founder who has spent years researching and documenting informal communities across West Africa. His passion lies in using design to advocate for inclusion, dignity, and sustainable urban development.
