City limits: Urbanization and vulnerability in Sudan, 2011

Sudan is urbanising rapidly. Although the trend is not new (and is consistent with a trend towards greater urbanisation across Sub-Saharan Africa1), the pace in Sudan appears to be accelerating. For a country of its size Sudan has relatively few cities, which means that the population drift from rural areas is focused on a small number of urban centres.

Khartoum Urban Area A study on Urban Planning

At the end of the last century, the British colonial administration imposed a new trend of urbanization in the Sudan.  A new system of towns was also created.  These new towns have become different from the indigenous ones in their function and spatial organization.  The colonial urban policy was, of course, a reflection of the ideology of colonialism itself.

Since the Second World War, a new interest has grown among American research scholars concerning the "backward or poor" countries of the world.  Consideration of these areas has changed.  This re-thinking has been both attitudinal and perceptual rather than material.  The "backward" became the "underdeveloped," and then finally the "developing."

Urbanisation in Sudan: Concept note for a study for DFID

Urbanisation is taking place at a rapid pace within Sudan.  Although the trend is not new, the pace appears to be accelerating.  For a country of its size, Sudan has relatively few cities; therefore the population drift from rural areas is focused on a small number of urban centres.  Sudan’s capital, Khartoum, has grown particularly fast – by a factor of eight between 1973 and 2005 (an average annual growth rate of over 6%).  Khartoum now has a population of over 5 million.

Figures from the recent population census in Sudan have not yet been officially released, which limits knowledge about the pace and scale of urbanisation elsewhere.
