تطوير إطار منهجي للتحول الحضري الذكي نحو الاستدامة : في سياق الحالة المصرية

Abstract AR

Contemporary Egyptian cities are in need to ensure sustainable development and to address urban, social, economic and environmental problems.

Despite the great potential of smart cities to improve the economy, conditions of cities and population conditions, this potential has not been fully realized, the frameworks and models of the current smart cities are still not enough to make the smart city concept successful in the context of Egyptian case.

This paper aims to provide an in-depth systematic framework for urban transformation towards smart sustainable city in the context of Egyptian case.

This study relied on qualitative and critical analysis of a selective set of literature and previous studies.

The architecture of proposed framework is based on the conceptual theoretical model of the phenomenon of smart urban transformation; Analysis of strategic planning methodology for urban development; as well as the context of the Egyptian cities with regard to the application of smart city concept.

The proposed framework is a guiding reference tool for policy makers, academics, executives or decision makers, enabling them to develop an effective and realistic strategic plan to make city smart rather than adopting policies and strategies that may not be compatible with Local context.

That ensures more chances of success, based on a realistic and modern theoretical model of smart urban transformation.
