International Journal of Urban Planning and Smart Cities (IJUPSC)

The International Journal of Urban Planning and Smart Cities (IJUPSC) is a peer-reviewed journal for researchers, academics, practitioners, and emerging scholars to publish their established results and new insights within the field of urban planning and digital transformation of cities. Triple sustainability of urban innovations (i.e. social, economic, and environmental sustainability) is the core of this editorial initiative.

Urban Planning addresses the design of cities and urban spaces in a multiple scale vision, and other important challenges of our time such as housing and shrinking cities to create high quality of life and social and economic opportunities for people.

Smart City addresses the key technological enablers of the new innovations that meet the needs and preferences of people. Linking and addressing these two topics together provides us the unprecedented opportunity to adopt an interdisciplinary approach to dissemination of novel practices for the sustainable development of our cities. The journal adopts the innovative lens of the complex, digital, and systemic cities, linking theory to practice.
