Partie commune, obligatoire

Exercice 1 · PART ONE: READING (40%) · 8 points

Read the text below and do all the activities that follow.

In Sub-Saharan Africa, the urban population has doubled since the mid-1990s, and

reached 400 million people in 2016. According to experts, 40% of the region’s total

population resides in cities, compared to 31 percent in 2000.

During the next 15 years, the United Nations predicts the world’s 10 fastest-growing

cities will be in Africa. However, the development of infrastructures and industries has not

kept pace with the growth in urban population. Sixty percent of city dwellers in Sub-Saharan

Africa live in slums, and only 25 percent have access to safe drinking water.

Poor sewage systems and weak flood control present another challenge. Kouman

Kossia Tamia, a traditional queen from Ivory Coast, fears the floods that come with each

rainy season. “When the rainy season comes, I cannot do anything because everything is

blocked,” she said.

Amadou Diarra, mayor of North Pikin, a suburb of Senegal’s capital, Dakar, sees

human waste management as a growing problem. “Waste is buried because there are no plants

to deal with it. Instead, there’s only one site that receives all the household waste in the Dakar

region. The challenge in moving towards sustainability is to transform waste next to where it

is produced rather than bury it underground,” he said.

Most of Africa’s urban growth is in small and middle size cities, with slightly more

than half of African urban dwellers living in cities with populations of less than 250,000.

Maggie Chantal, founder of the NGO “Urbanists Without Borders,” said these intermediate

cities are important to Africa’s future because they help connect large cities and rural areas.

“Without them,” she added, “rural areas have neither equipment nor jobs, which would lead

to an intensifying rural exodus by young people.” She says large cities only contribute to

economic and social problems such as slums.

But Africa already has many large cities, and the cities are getting larger and larger.

Lagos, in Nigeria is projected to become the largest city in the world, with an estimated

population of 88.3 million people by the year 2100, according to the World Economic Forum.
