Innovation for Sustainable Urban Living: The Path to Smart Cities

Introduction:

In today's increasingly urbanized world, where 60% of the population resides on just 2% of the land, traditional urban development and sustainability practices are insufficient to meet the needs of densely populated areas. Sustainable urban living and the creation of smart and sustainable cities have come to the forefront of urban development strategies. Modern cities must evolve into smart cities to manage resources efficiently and ensure that sustainable urban living is attainable.
