Young peoples' experiences, ideas, choices and preferences help shape the future of cities.

Chuma Mbambo is an Urban Planner with experience working at the SA Cities Network, as a Smart Cities Research Consultant for The World Bank, and more. She has a Masters Degree in Urban Management and Development, which specialised in Infrastructure and Smart Cities.
