SDG Indicator 11.3.1 and Secondary Cities: An Analysis and Assessment

Secondary cities are rapidly growing areas in low- and middle-income countries that lack data, planning, and essential services for sustainable development. Their rapid, informal growth patterns mean secondary cities are often data-poor and under-resourced, impacting the ability of governments to ta...
