Describing how Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs applies to Smart Cities and the implications of fulfilling those needs. Smart Cities need to pay attention to societal needs or pay a price!
A city that monitors and integrates conditions of all its critical infrastructures, including roads, bridges, tunnels, rails, subways, airports, seaports, communication, water supply, power, even major buildings can better optimizes its resources, plan its preventive maintenance activities and monitor security aspects while maximizing services to its citizens is known as smart city.
Impact of renaissance & industrial revolution on city forms & Concepts of utopiaAnoushka Tyagi
The presentation contains principles, and the impacts on city forms with respect to different movements- like the Park movement, linear city concept, Settlement house movement, city beautiful, and the garden city movement.
Globally cities are on the move. They are always evolving, devolving, never static and never finite. Accordingly, cities are being viewed, reviewed , redefined and renamed periodically, based on the changing needs of communities; objectives defined and pattern of planning; shape and size of the city; preserving, protecting and promoting resources, environment and ecology; making cities people, gender and technology centric etc. Cities in the past have accordingly been named as; planned cities, garden cities, linear cities, industrial cities, regenerative cities , eco-friendly cities, sustainable cities, inclusive cities, child/women/elders friendly cities, resilient cities, smart cities etc. Considering the fact that cities are fast emerging as major consumers of energy and resources; generators of waste and responsible for generating large carbon footprints, future typologies of cities now include; carbon neutral cities; energy efficient cities; zero water ; zero waste cities etc. In addition, majority of cities are also fast becoming hotbeds of disasters, both manmade and natural, accordingly safe cities is emerging another typology for urban settlements to make them disaster free. Looking at the context of cities getting flooded periodically due to heavy rains, breach of water channels, rivers, dams etc., leading to enormous loss to humans, social fabric, resources, environment, ecology, economy etc., Sponge city is the terminology now being deployed for cities, to make them safe against floods.
In the parlance of planning, Sponge city is defined, ‘As an urban area; which has been planned, designed and constructed to effectively and efficiently manage and cope with the challenges posed by excessive water/storm water caused by heavy rainfall, high tides , swollen rivers or other manmade/ natural activities, using a variety of techniques. Sponge city, has also been defined as, ‘the city that is designed to retain, clean, and reuse stormwater. Basically, sponge city in its approach, intent, content, planning, designing , construction and management, has focus on water and its effective and efficient management, without adversely impacting the operation and function of the city, which is subjected to challenge posed by excessive water. Sponge city model promotes, retaining the excess water within the city aquifer by creating options to eliminate concrete pavements that separate water from the natural ecosystem; utilize natural wetlands to absorb water into the soil; make city water-resilient and transform cities/communities/ neighbourhoods by helping in redefining urban landscape by working across different disciplines — hydrology, landscape, architecture, planning and engineering, to save human lives and property from the threat posed and damage caused by excess water.
Sponge city model, as an option and strategy, has been gaining currency and finding favour, both at local and global level with planners,
Cities are usually viewed as sinks; pulling in water resources for domestic and industrial needs. But they can also be seen as sponges as they release water. Usually , however, this is of decreased quality. But if we can make better use of this contaminated water, we can help avert resource crises in the future.
Frank Lloyd Wright (June 8, 1867 – April 9, 1959) was an American architect, designer, writer, and educator. He designed more than 1,000 structures over a creative period of 70 years.
Wrightt believed in designing in harmony with humanity and its environment, a philosophy he called organic architecture.
This philosophy was best exemplified by Fallingwater (1935), which has been called the best all-time work of American architecture. As a founder of organic architecture, Wright played a key role in the architectural movements of the twentieth century, influencing three generations of architects worldwide through his works.

Ujjain gets direct trains from all over India and is accessible from Indore (60 kms) and therefore an important pilgrim center in India. Ujjain is typically visited along with Omkareshwar as a part of Jyotirlinga Getaway. Situated on the banks of Sacred River Shipra, Ujjain is one of the four places in India where the famous Kumbh Mela takes place. This holy festival is held here every 12 years relating to the position of stars and planets. According to Hindu mythology, the nectar which came out from the ocean during its churning by Gods and Demons, fell at four places and Ujjain was one of them. That is the reason of Ujjain being a venue for the Kumbh Mela.

The City Resilience Index, developed by Arup with support from the Rockefeller Foundation, provides a comprehensive, technically robust, globally applicable basis for measuring city resilience. It is comprised of 52 indicators, which are assessed based on responses to 156 questions; through a combination of qualitative and quantitative data. The responses are aggregated and presented in relation to the 12 goals (or indices) in the Framework.
The Index has been piloted in 5 cities: Shimla, India, Concepcion, Chile, Arusha, Tanzania, Hong Kong, China and Liverpool, UK. We are encouraging policy makers and other city stakeholders to use the interactive on-line assessment tool at www.cityresilienceindex.org and begin this vital analysis.
We are very pleased to share the full report from our Future of Cities project – now available as PDF on SlideShare and as digital print via Amazon.
As previously shared in PPT format (https://www.slideshare.net/futureagenda2/future-of-cities-2017-summary), this is the detailed synthesis of insights gained from multiple discussions around the world. It brings together views on how cities are changing from a wide range of experts from 12 workshops undertaken over the past 2 years in Beirut, Christchurch, Delhi, Dubai, Guayaquil, Mumbai, Singapore, London, Toronto and Vienna.
Cities are where most of us choose to live, work and interact with others. As a result they are where innovation happens, where most ideas form and from which economic growth largely stems. They are also where significant problems can first emerge and where challenges are magnified.
This report explores some of the common challenges found in urban areas such as managing migration, countering inequality and sustainable scaling; highlights shared ambitions of having healthier, accessible and more intelligent cities; and also details some of the emerging concerns around creating cities that are safe, resilient and open to broader collaboration.
As a compilation of thoughts and ideas from a host of experts we would foremost like to thank all of the many workshop participants for their input. Without your views we would not be able to curate this synthesis. In addition we would also like to thank others who have added in extra content, shared reports and reviewed the core document. We hope that this reflects all your varied perspectives.
Going forward, we also hope that this will be of use to those leading cities, designing new districts, developing policy and exploring opportunities for urban innovation. We know that several cities are already using the insights as stimulus for challenging strategy and stimulating innovation. In addition, linking into to another Growth Agenda driven project looking at the Worlds Most Innovative Cities (https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/innovation-hot-spots-countries-vs-cities-tim-jones), this is also being used as part of events designed to help future leaders identify how and where they can make most impact.
As with all Future Agenda open foresight projects the output is shared under Creative Commons (Non Commercial) and so we trust that you may find it useful. This PDF on slideshare can be freely downloaded and shared. If you want to print out the report, the easiest way is to order a digital hardcopy via Amazon (for which they unfortunately charge a fee) but this is a quick and high quality print.

Similar to Smart cities and maslow's hierarchy of needs (20)
UNEP's presentation is utilized to address the problems facing our planet and augment them with practical and effective solutions.
A new era is emerging where human-centric solutions matter more than ever before
Society is at the cusp of the 5th Industrial Revolution, which in reality is a New Renaissance as every aspect of life, work, and existence will change dramatically. The key to adapting to the new lifestyles and norms is to handle social and societal changes is to perform massive transformations. The problem is that governments and current institutions have no clue as to how to handle massive transformations. They do not have the right institutions in place or programs to handle such extensive transformations. This presentation offers a few clues as to what is happening and how to handle those massive ntransformations.
Analyzing the megatrends in society that affect the way people think, behave, live their lives, work with their elected officials, deal with capitalism, etc. The comparison of the first Renaissance vs. the New Renaissance is very telling. Most people do not fully understand the impact of the New Renaissance as we all suffer from the boiled frog syndrome.
We are only at the initial phase of the New Renaissance. Things will dramatically change for everyone in the next 20-50 years. The New Renaissance is a lot more than just another label to describe the Digital Age.
The New Renaissance coincides with the emergence of the 5th Industrial Revolution and super smart technologies, such as Quantum Computing and Generative Artificial Intelligence.
This presentation was offered to several students that I have taught, coached, and mentored. It was, and still is, very impactful as it helps students understand important lessons for a fulfilling life and a successful and rewarding career.
This presentation offers insights as to how to make Smart Cities really great by adding the right magnets to attract "the best of the best". Smart Cities focused on technologies alone they will only be average cities with nothing else to attract citizens, businesses, and tourists.
This presentation is aimed at helping students the impact of the 4th Industrial Revolution because there are fears that 4IR will do more damage than good in society and millions of people will be unemployed. This is another big misunderstanding. This presentation explains the realities of the latest revolution.
This presentation is also offered to students with the purpose of understanding what is involved in the introduction of the 4th Industrial Revolution, a.k.a. Industry 4.0, CIM 4.0, and The Digital Age. It is important to grasp The Big Picture.
Additional slides to aid the discussion in class about 4IR and CIM 4.0. it is aimed at clarifying some points made in class and adding to the big picture of Industry 4.0.
This presentation is offered to students attending the CIM class, with the purpose of level setting and establishing the direction for the CIM course, as the book that is recommended by the university is stuck in CIM 2.0 (representing views of the last century).
This presentation is offered as an additional aid for students in understanding CIM 4.0 and 4IR. It offers seven nuggets of wisdom that most people and businesses do not fully grasp
CIM 4.0 is part of 4IR, but it is not properly understood or explained. This presentation offers some additional views and perspectives to aid students to understand the value and impact of CIM 4.0.
A quick overview of AI to help students that are not fully familiar with all that is involved and encompassed. It supports the claim that society is headed to higher levels of existence. It also supports the claim that civilization is at the cusp of a New Renaissance.
Ideas for improving one's consulting practice and presence in the business community in order to improve lead generation and opportunities to bid on contracts.
This presentation addresses the topic of Biophilic Designs as it pertains to designing smart cities, smart communities, smart buildings, smart offices, and smart homes. It also offers several examples from all over the world.
This is the material that was presented to certain communities that were interested in applying the concepts of Green, Clean, Sustainability, and Resilience in their own communities. It addresses Net Zero Emissions, Zero Waste, Circular Economy, and other relevant topics.
These are the top realizations resulting from the Fourth Industrial Revolution. Some of them are positive and some of them are negative, but they are important in terms of pondering the future and even take action as a society.
A brief overview of the four Industrial Revolutions and their impacts on society. In addition, offering an insight into the future and the 5th industrial Revolution.
Discussion slides pertaining to key realizations about destiny and the triggers to activate one's destiny and having a great life full of adventure and excitement.
Space Odyssey had many interpretations over the years. This is my interpretation. The film was not viewed as a spiritual movie, but it is one of the best movies to comprehend Cosmic Consciousness and its impact on the human race. It is a very deep spiritual movie.
Implicitly or explicitly all competing businesses employ a strategy to select a mix
of marketing resources. Formulating such competitive strategies fundamentally
involves recognizing relationships between elements of the marketing mix (e.g.,
price and product quality), as well as assessing competitive and market conditions
(i.e., industry structure in the language of economics).

Smart cities and maslow's hierarchy of needs
1. Maslow’s Hierarchy
Of Needs As It Applies
To Smart Cities
http://www.citiesthatwork.com/blog-renaissance/2016/6/30/applying-
the-hierarchy-of-needs-to-help-make-cities-that-work
Phillip Andrews
July 2019
2. Physiological Needs
• Basic infrastructure (land, water, sewer,
power, roads, a food source) and a tax base are the most
fundamental city needs. This base layer comprises the
bare necessities of a viable city: is there infrastructure in
place for the daily function of its citizens, and is there a
pool of money for maintaining that infrastructure? While
most every place meets these needs, it’s not always a
given, and when they’re not met it constitutes an
emergency – look no further than what’s happening in
Flint, Michigan for evidence of that.
PhillipAndrews
2
3. Safety and Security
• Police and fire services are the most obvious
component of this tier, but perception of safety also fits,
which is just as often a matter of design as it is law
enforcement. Additionally, either jobs or reliable access to
jobs falls here, as financial security is a powerful driver of
location decisions. Food security may be another topic
that belongs here. Overall, both the Safety &Security and
Physiological Needs levels should be thought of as
necessary but not sufficient conditions of any city that
works – without this solid foundation, the rest of your
work to address a city’s needs will suffer.
PhillipAndrews
3
4. Love and Belonging
• This is the level where a sense of community
and connectivity are critical. Connectivity in this
context is partly about having access to local and regional
services, but it is also about a community’s social,
community, and economic institutions – the organizations
both formal and informal that connect, nurture, and
invest in a city’s residents. Every planner knows that
even the best plans fail without the leadership and hard
work of local champions from the kinds of institutions
mentioned here.
PhillipAndrews
4
5. Key Point
• As is often heard around planning circles,
“Partnerships are key”, and this is where
those partnerships play that key role. A city can reach its
goals without a connected community, but it’s much more
likely that it will fail. These relationships are “A Must”
for success:
PPPs
Ecosystems
PhillipAndrews
5
6. Self-Esteem
• A city’s self-esteem is often reflected in its sense of place
and in the level of investment in itself.
Architecture, museums, cultural
centers, parks, stadiums, clubs,
schools, public landmarks, private
attractions, etc. are all examples of ways in which
cities show themselves to the world. Often, the things
that create sense of place require significant investments
of both time and money by public and private sector
entities (➔ PPPs).
PhillipAndrews
6
7. Key Point
• The success of these investments just as often lies in how
those investments are cared for by the citizenry, meaning
that without the ‘Love and Belonging’
tier in place, these investments can’t
work – at least, not in the long run. While these
elements may not be critical for the day-to-day survival of
a community, they are vital for community success, as
they help cities grow (and sustain growth), attract new
revenue, and take on larger import in their region.
PhillipAndrews
7
8. In Other Words, …
• Architecture, museums, cultural centers, parks,
stadiums, great schools, public landmarks, private
attractions … are part of the main magnets of the city!
No Magnets ➔ No Self-Esteem ➔
Smart & Wealthy People Exit ➔
City Dies
PhillipAndrews
8
9. Perfect Example: Detroit
• Most Detroiters did not appreciate their city. They
moved to the suburbs in order to avoid being associated
with Detroit. The Detroit Metro area became a
“doughnut”. And Detroit eventually fizzled out … and in
2013 it declared bankruptcy.
PhillipAndrews
9
10. … And It Wasn’t Just Detroit That
Blew It. Look At These Cities:
• Akron
• Buffalo
• Canton
• Flint
• Gary
• Rochester
• Saginaw
• Syracuse
• Toledo …
PhillipAndrews
10
11. Self-Actualization For
Smart Cities
• This is a stage where cities can successfully address some
of the more elusive but crucial goals facing cities
today: issues such as how to be socially responsible,
environmentally sustainable, or universally equitable.
These issues are so heavily dependent on the levels below
them in the hierarchy that many times projects on topics
like affordability or long-term sustainability end
up focusing on strategies to address issues in other levels,
like partnership building, local
infrastructure investment, or multimodalism.
PhillipAndrews
11
12. Example Of Crucial Goals For
Smart Cities
• Become Lean, Clean, Green, Resilient and
Sustainable City
Advance the Net Zero mentality
• Become Efficient and Proficient
• Adopt and Promote the Digital Economy, the
Circular Economy, and Green Economy …
Help society with the Digital Transformation
Educate, communicate, motivate, incentivize, reward …

Where is our plan?
Don’t ask!
14. Smart City Secondary Goals
https://reset.org/node/27044
• The use of modern efficient, and intelligent infrastructures such as
smart energy grids and effective waste management, etc.
• A thoughtful approach to integrating information and communications
technologies that support and enhance day-to-day urban life.
• Urban design that is accessible and citizen centric with great emphasis on
the role of public participation.
• Adaptive urban design that accommodates new and existing residents
and where city planners can learn from experiments and create new models.
• Transparency, where all citizens have access to data from city services and
establishments.
• Adaptation of pro-active city-wide policies, which give city authorities
the tools to implement smart city programs.

15. Key Point
• The Self-Actualization efforts are always very
costly, particularly in the short term, requiring
strong ‘Love & Belonging’ and ‘Self-Esteem’ to weather
the early days of implementing Smart Cities Initiatives --
because installing a new Technical Infrastructure is
expensive, and so is building/developing Innovation Zones
and Hubs, Cultural Zones, Entertainment Zones, Sports
Zones, Ecosystems, new organizations to manage and
advance Smart City Initiatives, and so on.

19. Key Point: Maslow was an atheist,
and the spiritual or transcendence
needs were not considered

This is why architecture,
art, and culture matter
There is more to
spirituality than this
That’s where Higher Purpose fits
20. What Are The Transcendence
Needs Of A Great Society?
• Pursuing worldviews
• Pursuing Oneness/Togetherness
• Cooperating/Collaborating
• Ending wars and conflicts
• Transforming without pain or fear
• Pursuing even loftier goals than Smart Cities or
Cognitive Communities
• Achieving higher levels of excellence and understanding

24. Final Points
• Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs applies to cities.
• Like people, cities are complex and ever-changing entities
that try to balance daily needs with lofty goals.
• Like people, cities always seek to fit within a larger
setting. People seek to fit in society, while cities seek to
fit in the civilization that they belong to.
• Finding ways to satisfy these interrelated needs and
aspirations is ultimately a major part of what planning is
all about.
