„Best Practices for sustainable cities – towards The City We Need 2.0“
Cities are the place of economic production, knowledge and innovation – together with connectivity, creativity and services. As cities are dense, they offer also high potentials for energy savings and low carbon economies. However, cities are also today confronted to several challenges: unemployment, segregation, climate change issues. Our ISOCARP Workshop was focussing on implementation of good practices, by listening first from leading companies from the private sector, and secondly by presenting solutions for cities elaborated by urban planners in interdisciplinary teams: the Urban Planning Advisory Teams program (UPAT) of ISOCARP.

„Plan it Smart! Clever Solutions for Smart Cities“
June 1st 2016 – 14.00 – 17.30 – Chair: Manfred Schrenk

“Smart Cities” has become a widely used term for the implementation of information and communication technologies (ICT) into the processes of cities and the built environment, aiming to improve the integration of the physical assets as well as social and environmental capital. Fired by several rankings there seems to be a competition for the title of the “Smartest City”. This kind of hype raises a lot of questions that the workshop will deal with.

The focus of the workshop will be on the role on how to improve quality of life by using „smart technologies“, with a special focus on urban and transport planning. Can we „Plan it Smart“ and find clever solutions for smart cities?
