IMPACT

Smart cities’ technological orientation makes citizens mere observers of the ‘smart’ choices made, with little room for participation. Citizen engagement is a social innovation process targeting the co-production of public value. Receiving sufficient ‘smart’ education in public sector accounting could be useful to citizens and the city alike. Cultivating citizens’ ability to understand, evaluate and monitor their city’s condition and performance could inspire citizens to actively engage: the ultimate goal being to facilitate the generation of public value through co-design. This education should target a continuous lifelong learning process, taking advantage of the significant role of citizens, education and technology within smart cities.

影响

智慧城市的技术导向使市民只能成为做出“明智”选择的观察者，几乎没有参与的空间。公民参与是一个以公共价值的共同生产为目标的社会创新过程。在公共部门会计方面接受足够的“智能”教育可能对公民和城市都有用。培养市民理解、评估和监控城市状况和绩效的能力可以激发市民积极参与：最终目标是通过共同设计促进公共价值的产生。这种教育应以持续的终身学习过程为目标，利用智慧城市中公民、教育和技术的重要作用。
