A smart city leveraged Digital Twin technology to improve citizen engagement and participation in urban planning and decision-making processes, aiming to foster inclusivity, transparency, and accountability in preparation for COP28.
The city faced challenges in engaging citizens in civic affairs and soliciting input for urban development projects, leading to a lack of trust and satisfaction among residents. Traditional public participation methods often failed to reach diverse segments of the population and capture their perspectives effectively.
The integration of Digital Twin technology improved citizen engagement in the smart city, resulting in more inclusive, transparent, and accountable urban planning processes. This achievement demonstrated the city's commitment to democratic principles and citizen-centric governance in preparation for COP28.
