ALT We're thrilled to spotlight Faranani Gethe, a dedicated PhD candidate and lecturer at Wits University, whose research is directly contributing to the transformation of our urban spaces! Faranani recently showcased part of his PhD research at the 2024 African Real Estate Society (AfRES) Conference in Livingstone, Zambia. His paper, focusing on inclusive strategies for urban regeneration in South Africa, is a vital component of his broader work on creating sustainable and equitable cities. Sharing his insights with leading scholars from across the continent in such a dynamic setting truly exemplifies our commitment to academic excellence and societal impact. Faranani's dedication to urban regeneration aligns perfectly with our vision for a transformed society – one where cities are sustainable, just, inclusive, and truly reflective of their inhabitants.
