Civic Empowerment |
civic-engagement/civic-empowerment |
Citizens who collaborate in the development of smart cities can gain control over their data and how it is used. In smart cities, real-time data exchange between citizens and governments allow citizens to participate in decisions about their city. This also allows for a flexible approach that takes into account the changes that a particular municipality may experience over time.
We'll look at three civic empowerment applications:
- Improving access to townhall meetings,
- Encouraging residents to vote, and
- Hackathons.
