    Objective of the Project The SDG No. 11 claims to “Make cities and human settlements inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable”. This goal might meet both ancient cities and new smart cities characteristics.
    With this in common, it is not impossible to think about ancient cities evolving into smart cities that address modern urban challenges, including climate change, sustainability, and urban resilience. Nowadays, historic cities such as Rome, Athens, and Beijing have already started integrating smart technologies while preserving their cultural heritage.
    Topics proposed to discuss in the project related to both ancient and smart cities are: efficiency, sustainability, connectivity, governance, resilience, and data-driven decision making.

    Main objective: To discuss the opportunity of ancient cities to evolve into smart cities
    Other topics to explore:
    Ancient cities as models of Urban Excellence

    How SDG 11 aligns with both historic and smart cities, the Feasibility of Evolution
    The Role of Governance and Community Participation
    Expected Benefits from the Project For public policy urban planning: to overview ancient cities as models of long-term planning and integrate them with modern smart city solutions.
