Jin-Kyu Jung co-edited a special issue in Urban Planning journal

IAS faculty member Jin-Kyu Jung co-edited the thematic issue for Urban Planning, “Smart Engagement with Citizens: Integrating “the Smart” into Inclusive Public Participation and Community Planning,” with Jung Eun Kang at the Pusan National University in Korea. The thematic issue explores new visions, facets and methods, practices, and tools for enabling smart engagement, in which smart technologies, infrastructure and governance, and inclusive planning processes may foster social inclusion, democratization, communications, and engagements with the urban residents. It also draws on research from various countries and cities across the world, responding to the need to understand how citizen engagement in smart city planning is practiced in different contexts, in particular, from transnational perspectives and evidence.
