Despite the wealth of research on smart cities, there is a lack studies examining interlinkages between cities and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). In other words, limited how implementing city solutions can lead to co-benefits and/or trade-offs for achieving SDGs. This systematic literature review was conducted fill this gap. Results show that responsible development/implementation technologies could contribute progress toward The mainly focused SDG 11 (Sustainable Cities Communities), 12 (Responsible Consumption Production), 7 (Affordable Clean Energy), 6 (Clean Water Sanitation). More work SDGs needed. There bias reporting benefits cities.

Resilience of urban social-ecological-technological systems (SETS): A review

Sustainable Cities and Society, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 99, С. 104910 - 104910

Опубликована: Сен. 3, 2023

Resilience is a widely debated concept that encompasses various interpretations. Recently, in science and policy circles, there has been growing interest the of Social-Ecological-Technological Systems (SETS) resilience which offers new interpretation. While this now used frequently, it not properly understood still lack clarity on what means its underpinning principles. This understanding may confuse even disorient researchers makers. To address issue, we review literature published context urban systems. The reviewed mainly focused nature-based solutions, indicating more contributions from ecological field. Also, flooding, extreme heat, drought are major stressors discussed literature. We elaborate definition SETS discuss dominant principles adaptability, transformability, flexibility, redundancy, equity, diversity, foresight capacity, connectivity, robustness, multi-functionality, learning, non-linearity. also expound upon key components SETS, how they intertwined, potential trade-offs emerge between them. Our study demonstrates implementation approach leads to numerous ancillary benefits. If multi-level polycentric governance strategies adopted, can help avoid social, ecological, technological dimensions. conclude by emphasizing dominated epistemological approaches empirical research needed understand better complex dynamics resilience.

Community resilience in city emergency: Exploring the roles of environmental perception, social justice and community attachment in subjective well-being of vulnerable residents

Sustainable Cities and Society, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 97, С. 104745 - 104745

Despite the importance of social justice and community attachment for subjective well-being (SWB), existing research fails to adequately examine these factors in urban emergencies. This study develops a theoretical framework elucidate roles environment perception, justice, SWB during emergencies, with focus on vulnerable populations. Drawing context COVID-19 lockdown Shanghai, expands definition groups, considering including gender, income, immigrant, housing ownership, infection/exposure history. We proposed structural equation modelling compare groups multiple-group analysis. The analysis evidences direct contribution SWB, intermediates environmental perception SWB. These present heterogeneity among groups: identity only affects perceived health residents infection history, ownership high income. revisits interaction between emergencies from vulnerability perspective. discussions provide novel insights devising strategies service infrastructure development aimed at enhancing resilience. Also, findings can benefit emergency planning both city scale.

Purpose This research examines the influence of digital voice consumers (DVoC) on resilience supply chains (SCR) within renewable energy sector. The main goal is to identify and highlight crucial aspects that enable examination this impact. Design/methodology/approach A comprehensive literature analysis was performed utilizing Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) approach ascertain pertinent factors. utilizes a methodology merges interpretive structural modeling (ISM) with Matrice d’Impacts Croisés Multiplication Appliquée à un Classement (MICMAC) assess discovered variables. Findings study identified 16 factors contribute both DVoC SCR. Key influential include top management support, collaboration, feedback flexibility. These play significant role in enhancing SCR by facilitating better adaptation response disruptions. Research limitations/implications confined sector may lack generalizability other businesses without additional validation. Subsequent studies ought investigate implementation these findings across various industrial contexts enhance comprehension DVoC’s Originality/value presents new integrated framework comprehending function improving It practical consequences stakeholders sector, such as researchers, regulators, manufacturers consumers, highlighting necessity resilient flexible chain.
