African Smart Cities: Smart African Countries.
African development can be defined from Marcus Garvey’s perspective as a constant and consistent search for self-improvement. Indeed, before now and then, Africans, like all other human beings, constantly and consistently strive to improve their stands in all aspects.
The notion of Smart Cities has become a story on the lips of many in the continent. But what are smart cities, or what makes a city smart?
A smart city is a region or geographical location that uses digital and electronic technology, and infrastructure to collect data, monitor city operations, share information in real time, and much more.
10 cities from 9 African countries you know, have been listed in the 20 23 edition of the Smart Cities Index, produced by the International Institute for Management Development, based in Switzerland.
These cities have been proven to have many benefits such as an increased focus on sustainability, better security systems, more efficient communication, and less crime.
Before these rankings were made, the I.M.D surveyed more than 14 thousand people from African cities about their perception of the impact of technology in five main areas, including mobility, health and safety, activities, opportunities, and governance.
According to I.M. D’s officials, there are two pillars for which perceptions from various individuals are solicited when discussing Smart Cities. The Structures Pillar refers to the existing infrastructures of the cities, and the Technology Pillar describes the technological landscape and services available to the population.
