Our Mission:

City a Year

Africa has the fastest growing populations on earth. Fast population growth and even faster urbanization has created a housing crisis. Uganda is adding 1.5 million to 2 million people every year. To keep up with population growth and urbanization, Uganda has to build the equivalent of a city a year for the next 25 years. Building these cities responds to a crisis but also fuels unprecedented economic growth and development. WARP is turning Uganda’s housing crisis into an economic growth opportunity

Our Mission

WARP’s vision is of Universal Homeownership, a world where every household owns its home. WARP’s mission is to build the homes and cities the world needs to accommodate the growing global population in the 21st century.

 
 

WE NEED BOLD

“A City A Year” is a WaRP initiative to build 13 cities by 2040 to accommodate Uganda’s fast-growing population. Developing the cities as quickly as they are needed is Uganda’s best shot at achieving middle income status by 2040. 


 

13

CITies by 2040

Currently, WARP is assuming a mandate from the National Planning Authority as the consulting company to guide Uganda’s development of 13 cities by 2040.

PEOPLE PER CITY

Uganda is adding 1.5 million to 2 million people every year. To keep up with population growth and urbanization, Uganda has to build the equivalent of a city a year for the next 25 years.

 
 

40B

per city

Each of these cities will house an average of 3 million and will cost more than $40 billion to build. In other words, the development of the 13 cities will cost at least $500 trillion and should add more than $2.5 trillion to Uganda’s GDP.
