Solarize Portland transformed the market for residential solar energy in Portland, OR. It's also an example of the key - but often overlooked - role of community and civil-society groups in creating more sustainable cities.
This talk looks more closely at how civil-society groups can drive innovation and push forward urban responses to climate change.

The Rule of Thumb – Mobiles for Governance in India VodafoneIN
“The Rule of Thumb – Mobiles for Governance in India”, a report that explores India’s governance challenge across six dimensions: Voice and Accountability, Political Stability, Government Effectiveness, Regulatory Quality, Rule of Law and Control of Corruption.
M-governance utilizes mobile technology such as mobile phones, pagers, laptops, tablets, personal digital assistants and two-way radios to improve benefits for citizens, businesses and government. With over 930 million connections and 13% of the global mobile users, India has a unique opportunity to leverage mobile technology to take good governance to its citizens across the country, states the Rule of Thumb – Mobiles for Governance in India report.
What makes a city “smart” in the digital age? How can a complex urban fabric develop intelligence that drives planning, decision-making and positively affects the lives of its population? What ingredients—be they organizational, technological, cultural or regulatory— enable a metropolis to re-invent its modus operandi and achieve sustained developmental strides? In short, how can a local government build a “smart city” and generate public value? In exploring these questions, this study provides an in-depth analysis of the critical first phase of Dubai’s mega-transformation into a smart city. Dubai’s stated objective in building the smart city is to improve the quality of life and raise the levels of public “happiness”. Its vision is not just to be the “smartest” city in the world by 2017, but also to be one of the “happiest” places on earth to live and work. Achieving these two ambitious goals requires addressing numerous organizational, technological, cultural and policy challenges. This study analyzes these challenges as well as the milestones reached, through tracing the paths taken by different stakeholders and documenting the multifaceted lessons learned. The findings provide ample evidence suggesting that the technological infrastructure, regulatory frameworks and organizational structures are now in place as critical foundations for building the smart city.

Janaagraha works with citizens and the government to catalyze systemic change in urban India. Focused on developing the quality of urban infrastructure and services, as well as the quality of citizenship, its work ranges from civic education in schools, to providing support to state governments in the design of urban transformation agendas. While a large part of its work is based in Bangalore, it has scaled several programs to cover all of India.
It has been a year marked by the formal launch of the Sustainable Development Goals, humanitarian crises, and political change.
But, in all of that, the role of business in addressing development challenges, from agriculture to humanitarian aid, and from health to climate, has continued to grow and gain recognition.
Here’s a look at some of the top Devex Impact articles from the past year.
The global pandemic has had a massive socio-economic impact on the urban mobility sector. As the government eases lockdown measures, urban mobility is becoming a huge focus of anxiety, with a large number of people considering when and how to resume travel. This implies that the transport system will have to be re-designed such that passengers are at a safe enough distance from each other. Serious questions like: will personal vehicles become the safest means to travel? What about the safety of people who cannot afford personal vehicles? What will happen to the present mode of public transport, will need answers.
This report titled, “Resetting for Urban Mobility 2020+ in India” discusses challenges brought in the urban mobility space by the COVID-19 pandemic. The document highlights the key measures to be taken at both the government and individual levels as public
transportation across the globe begins to unlock. Viewpoints from London, Singapore, and India – on the future of urban planning and public transport in response to the ongoing pandemic have also been discussed in this document. Experts from these counties contribute to a deeper understanding of safety measures adopted.
Change is everywhere. Technology has accelerated the change. Government needs to adapt its thinking and strategy to these new realities. This document is primer to decision makers to trigger their thinking in that direction. The future of Government is Open, Collaborative and Social.

Towards smart riyadh riyadh wiki information and complaining systemIJMIT JOURNAL
In the past ten years, the role of citizens to achieve smart city vision is realized and the people-centric Smart City model has been stressed. In this paper, we propose “Riyadh Wiki Information and Complaining System” for citizen engagement in Riyadh city in Saudi Arabia. The system follows the crowd sourcing approach by allowing citizens to act as sources of data to support the government and to improve their city. It also follows the co-design approach by being an open source platform that allows citizens to cooperate to build the system and add new services. The system aims at enhancing citizens’ life and solving governmental issues like transparency, trust, decision-making, and accountability in a cheap way. It is developed as a web-based wiki system, so it can be used easily by the non-skilled citizens while allowing skilled citizens to add new features, functionalities, and new services. It supports both Arabic and English languages and exploits the widespread of social media to attract more citizens. Initial evaluations using eparticipation assessment, web accessibility and web usability evaluation techniques have been carried out and the results show the effectiveness of the system.

Youth demands for the New Urban Agenda (Habitat III)Alice Junqueira
This document’s goal is to contribute to the international conversation about youth and cities governance and it’s importance to the urban sustainable development agenda.
The work is specially aimed to contribute to the discussions of The Third United Nations Conference on Housing and Sustainable Urban Development (Habitat III) - The New Urban Agenda (NUA), but it should not be restricted to it. Agenda 2030 for Sustainable Development, Population and Development Agenda, Human Rights Agenda, and other international agendas are also agendas to which the urban issue is central, since we live in an urban world and cities are core to achieve more just and sustainable societies.
In a May 9, 2024 paper, Juri Opitz from the University of Zurich, along with Shira Wein and Nathan Schneider form Georgetown University, discussed the importance of linguistic expertise in natural language processing (NLP) in an era dominated by large language models (LLMs).
The authors explained that while machine translation (MT) previously relied heavily on linguists, the landscape has shifted. “Linguistics is no longer front and center in the way we build NLP systems,” they said. With the emergence of LLMs, which can generate fluent text without the need for specialized modules to handle grammar or semantic coherence, the need for linguistic expertise in NLP is being questioned.

5. Gurgaon has been home of rising

social values of a fast-paced, fast
changing society and the
widening socio-economic divide.

city interspersed with high rises,
bungalows, and excellent wide
roads with fabulous infrastructure.
It is growing as a world class city
and now occupies a place of pride
among the emerging cities of the
country.
7. Gurgaon is the kind of city urban planners can learn from on how
not to build a city. This, for various reasons: A private sector gone
berserk because it was blindsided by greed, successive governments
that abdicated responsibility, and apathy on part of the landed
gentry.
8. Identify the most pressing issues of Gurgaon relating to Environment,
Infrastructure & Governance.
Undertake fact finding on most pressing issues.
Publicize findings through PR strategy, website and social media strategy.
