A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
Singapore is a city at the confluence of a multitude of activities, which very quickly embarked upon a digital revolution thanks to innovating policies. Just like Norilsk, Singapore is not a natural city: considering its conditions, it should not exist. Its presence is the result of the political will to make it the smartest city in the world. A pilot project aims to test a hypothesis surrounding all or part of the systemic dynamic of a smart city. Smart city projects in Africa must therefore be global development projects that deal with the stability of the city as a sustainable ecosystem, creating economic opportunities, and the development of social capital. In emerging countries, the concept of smart cities is even more pertinent than in developed countries under the double constraint of a high demographic growth and limited resources.
