Smart Cities promoting the UN 2030 Agenda in the Amazon

The topic of 'Smart Cities' aligns with the UN's 2030 Agenda in the Amazon, particularly under the thematic line of 'social inclusion and economy.' A smart city, to be considered as such, must ensure the quality of life for its residents, promote participatory governance, foster innovation, and facilitate cooperative systems to boost productivity in both urban and rural areas. This event will take the form of panel discussions in a virtual format. The goal is to showcase scientific research and local development initiatives aligned with the 2030 Agenda and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) for smarter and more sustainable cities. The focus is to connect researchers and professionals with diverse expertise, including students from the Local Development Postgraduate Programme (PPGDL), with academic and professional experts involved in initiatives that foster social inclusion, economic, and environmental development in the Amazon region, an area of international interest.
