课程名称：非洲城市基础设施融资 概述：世界正在迅速城市化。在不到一个世纪的时间里，已城市化的人口超过10亿，这意味着全球超过一半的人口已经居住在城市中。专家预测，非洲很快将成为最城市化的大陆之一。然而，全球约70%的城市人口生活在政府难以提供基本服务的城市，如卫生、学校、医院和足够的清洁水。这是因为这些政府没有足够的资金。而这也可能适用于你居住或工作的城市。基础设施的不足影响了我们的日常生活。地方政府在筹集资金以改善生活质量方面面临挑战，但许多时候他们并不知道正确的机制。 想象一下，如果你的政府希望了解如何为城市融资，并希望你提供建议，你会从哪里开始？我们的金融专家将通过这门大规模在线开放课程（MOOC）分享他们的经验。该课程包含五个模块，五周内你将学习： - 城市系统中的财务决策环境 - 动员地方收入的机制 - 通过合作伙伴关系融资基础设施项目的创新机制 - 在不确定性和风险下的财务决策 我们将提供精心挑选的文献、测验和互动讨论论坛。加入我们的MOOC，发掘如何使你的城市成为一个更适合你和下一代生活的地方。 该MOOC是与非洲联合城市与地方政府组织（UCLG-Africa）、非洲地方政府学院（ALGA）和鹿特丹伊拉斯姆斯大学合作开发的。 大纲： - 课程介绍 - 城市金融入门 - 当前支出的融资 - 资本支出的融资 - 市政政府的财务决策 - 毕业项目

Description:
The world is urbanizing fast. In less than a century more than 1 billion people have been urbanized. That translates into the fact that more than half of the world’s population is already living in cities. Experts forecast that very soon Africa will become one of the most urbanized continents. However, almost 70% of world’s urban population is living in the cities where governments are struggling to provide basic services like sanitation, schools, hospitals, and adequate clean water. The reason is that, their governments do not have enough money. This may also be true also for the city where you live or work. Poor infrastructure affects your daily life. Local governments struggle with mobilizing finances so that they can improve your quality of life but many times they are not aware of the right mechanisms. Imagine that your government wants to know how can they finance cities and they want you to advise – where will you begin with? Our finance experts are bringing their experience right at your Desk through this MOOC. This MOOC has five modules and in five weeks you will learn: • Financial decision making environment in urban systems • Mechanisms for mobilizing local revenues • Innovative mechanisms for financing infrastructure projects through partnerships, and • Financial decision making under uncertainties and risks We will provide you a carefully selected set of literature, quizzes and interactive discussion forums. So join our MOOC and find out the ways to make your city a better place to live in for yourself and for your next generations. (This MOOC was developed in collaboration with the United Cities and Local Governments of Africa (UCLG-Africa), African Local Governments Academy (ALGA), and Erasmus University Rotterdam)
