As you know in Module Four of the Executive MSc in Cities, participants work with cities to devise a finance and funding strategy for a case study, consulting with local stakeholders and members of the World Bank’s Cities Finance Team. As alumni you can now bring a case study to future cohorts of the EMC by co-hosting a finance challenge in a city that you are working with.
