Economic growth is rooted in cities

Speaking to Power FM’s Noluthando Mthonti-Mlambo, CDE’s Ann Bernstein discussed the key issues facing South Africa’s cities resulting in poor economic growth. “Cities, all over the world, have been places where lots of people come together and because of that close association, ideas and innovation are in the air,” she said.

This media interview is based on two CDE publications titled: “South Africa’s future will be decided in our cities?” and “South Africa’s Anti-Growth Strategy: How poor policy and bad governance are wrecking growth”
