CityNet, together with Seoul Metropolitan Government (SMG) and UNESCAP, held an Integrated Sustainable Solutions for Smart Cities Workshop from 18-25 August 2019 as part of the Urban SDG Knowledge Platform offline activity.

The sessions included diverse topics such as lectures on Seoul’s smart city initiatives, big data and transportation policy, public data service of Seoul, smart infrastructure of Seoul, and eight different site visits. During the workshop, the participants had an opportunity to present their city cases and build feasible action plans reflecting the knowledge they gained throughout the workshop.
