Caption title.
“March 2015”.
“This discussion paper highlights that Afghanistan faces a formidable ‘data deficit’, especially in terms of urban-disaggregated data. The paper reviews the current status of urban monitoring and provides an overview of the pioneering methodology developed in the state of Afghan cities programme 2014/15 to gather more reliable and up-to-date data on urbanisation. Such data is essential for informed decision-marking, particularly when faced with dwindling resources and the continued rapid growth of Afghan cities”—title page.
