{"product_id":"2940154086933","title":"Smart Cities Movement in BRICS","description":"\u003cp\u003eUrbanisation creates as many opportunities for societies as it does a gamut of challenges. Globally, more and more nations are pondering the concept of a ‘smart city,’ and examining the suitability of applying so-called smart solutions to the multifaceted problems of cities. This publication documents the experiences of BRICS countries with specific methodologies and reform measures they have employed to make their cities smart and liveable. The papers cover a wide range of subjects, including policy and governance, research methods, financial resources, people’s participation, public safety, public services, and environmental sustainability. BRICS nations are home to nearly 40 percent of the world’s urban population. Timely interventions based on knowledge shared will be instrumental in achieving this ambitious goal of making cities smart.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eContents\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEditor’s Note\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e1.
