The purpose of this course is to explore citizen engagement in the context of smart, sustainable cities, with the goal of providing students with an understanding of the principles and practices involved in urban landscaping. Throughout the course, students will explore key concepts and practical applications across various domains, from understanding the principles of citizen engagement to analyzing the role of digital technologies in urban development. Through a blend of theoretical insights and empirical approaches, students will engage with case studies, examples, and interactive discussions to ground theoretical knowledge in real-world contexts. By examining topics such as equity and inclusivity, co-creation and co-production, and crisis response, students will develop an understanding of the challenges and opportunities inherent in building smart sustainable cities with citizen engagement in place. The goal is to enable students to become informed leaders and change agents in pursuit of a more sustainable and inclusive urban future.
