International Smart Cities Network (ISCN)
The International Smart Cities Network (ISCN) promotes the integration of digital solutions into citizen-centred urban development processes and facilitates the exchange of good practices and experiences between urban development stakeholders worldwide.
The ISCN currently consists of the core member countries Brazil, Mexico, Peru, India and Germany. These are each involved in the network activities at national and municipal level. Through the ISCN, the partner countries have the opportunity to continuously exchange their expertise and experience in the field of smart cities. The constant "learning from each other" should make it possible to jointly shape the digital transformation of cities in terms of sustainable and integrated urban development.
The #connectedinEurope Project
In the coming years, the European Green Deal and the Digital Europe programme will play a central role in the implementation of European regulations and the design of funding instruments. One of the aims is to develop European municipalities into smart cities. This requires a European exchange between institutional players and municipalities on how the digital transformation can contribute to realising the goals of sustainable, integrated urban development that is oriented towards the common good at European and national level.
