Background and Overview

 "A smart sustainable city is an innovative city that uses information and communication technologies (ICTs) and other means to improve quality of life, efficiency of urban operation and services, and competitiveness, while ensuring that it meets the needs of present and future generations with respect to economic, social and environmental aspects" - ITU-T Focus Group on Smart Sustainable Cities.

TECHNICAL REPORTS  of the Focus Group are available at the weblink above.

In the "Smart and Sustainable" city models that are emerging, ICT stakeholders have a major role. While facilitating development of the underlying broadband and intelligent machine to machine infrastructure, they also play pivotal role in building smart and secure applications for the other sectors, create appropriate enabling environment and provide tools for big data processing capabilities that can support fast and efficient decision making. This training aims to build skills on the required framework for SSC from an ICT perspective, the underlying components and the role of various ICT stakeholders in development of Smart Sustainable Cities with a focus on Asia-Pacific region.

The training on "Leveraging ICTs for Smart Sustainable Cities" is organized by the International Telecommunication Union (Telecommunciation Development Bureau and Telecommunication Standardization Bureau) and the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI).
