Kampala is on the fast-track to becoming a literal Mega-City. Expecting 20 million people by the year 2040, Kampala hopes to manage the growth of urbanization within its borders. With the rapid growth of the country, one may hope that many areas of improvement are worked on. Such areas include access to water, sanitation, and yes human rights.

Do you think increased globalization in light of Kampala's growth can be used for the good? Interested to learn more...
