Progress is defined by history: addressing urban challenges | Anders Ese | TEDxIlala

To design sustainable cities for the future we need to take an interdisciplinary approach & look to the past to understand where we have come from and what has worked before. Currently Head of Urbanism and Planning East Africa at Rodeo Architects, Anders Ese specalises in urban development in the global South, specifically issues related to urbanisation and poverty in Eastern and Southern Africa. Anders will be sharing ideas about urban development and what this means in Dar es Salaam. He will be focusing on need and demand, how these forces shape the way the city develops and what can be done to improve this process. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at http://ted.com/tedx
