  40. Relevance:
  41. The “Smart City” formula has gained traction in academia, business and government to describe cities that, on the one hand, are increasingly composed of and monitored by pervasive and ubiquitous computing and, on the other, are striving to restructure their economy and governance based on innovation, creativity and entrepreneurship. This tendency has gained attention of those producing and utilising data to monitor, regulate, profit from, and make sense of the urbanisation process in both developed and developing countries. In such context, the hype and hope of big data analytics, open data and algorithmic governance is fostering a transformation in the knowledge and governance of cities through the exploitation of the “data deluge” that may provide much more sophisticated, wider-scale, finer-grained, real-time understanding and control of urbanity and city-dwellers. Given the role that such systems are likely to play in shaping urban governance and public policies and the impact that “Smart City” services will have - and are already having - on an incredible number of city dwellers, there is a pressing need to figure out how public managers and private companies are defining data governance in the context of smart cities policies. This includes the nature and production of urban big data, the composition and functioning of urban analytics and control centres related to smart cities, and the privacy and security implications of the adopted forms of governance for citizens on a global scale. As such, it is urgent to understand the regulatory and governance dimensions of Smart Cities, especially the ones related to personal data protection, and identify legal gaps that may allow social and economic discrimination, with particular regard to access to public services. Last but not least it is important to stress that, despite its incredible relevance, the smart city issue has never been explored before at the IGF.
  42. Session Content:
  43. The purpose of this session is to identify challenges, opportunities and new data governance models for the organization and provision of smart city services by private companies and public actors while ensuring the protection of citizens’ rights. The participants will analyse case studies illustrating both success-stories and flagrant failures in the organisation and provision of smart city services. Participants will analyse and compare a selection of existing models in order to identify of good practices and elaborate recommendations on data governance. We propose a discussion aimed at addressing the technical, legal and institutional complexities of existing data governance models in Smart Cities, with a particular focus on the tensions between the use of public data and the protection of personal data. The purpose of the workshop interactions will be to identify best practices in the area of privacy, security, transparency and democratic accountability in the context smart city services.
  44. The workshop will be opened with a keynote by
  45. Dr Robert Mathews, University of Hawaii
  46. , exploring the risks and vulnerabilies of smart-city services. The first part of the workshop (around 45 minutes) will be dedicated to an interactive roundtable during which the panellists will provide provocative presentations of about 5 minutes each, exploring best as well as worst practices with regard to data privacy, data and infrastructure security and democratic accountability in the context of smart cities. After the round of presentations, the panellists will engage in an open and interactive debate with all workshop participants in a question and answer session that will last 35 to 40 minutes. Notably, this roundtable intends to be a space where participants can address concerns and share insights on alternative approaches and emerging initiatives, such as the MyData model, fostering innovative solutions for the development of sustainable data governance models worldwide.
  47. Interventions:
  48. Olga Cavalli, will explore the main benefits and challenges of smart cities and IoT in Latin America.
  49. Nicholas Bramble, from Google, will debate Google's recent projects with regard to smart city services and will share his perspective on the future evolutions of this field.
  50. Antti Poikola, from MyData.org, will present the MyData model, stressing its potential for individual empowerment with regard to the control of personal data
  51. Robert Mathews will scrutinise the security challenges and frequent failures of critical infrastructures and so-called “smart” systems
  52. Jean-Philbert Nsengimana, will analyse the potential of smart city services and open data utilisation for African countries in the context of the Smart Africa initiative
  53. Jhessica Reia will discuss the main challenges related to smart city initiatives in the implementation of the New Urban Agenda over the next years.
  54. Luca Belli will analyse some of the challenges related to personal data regulation in the context of Smart Cities, exploring the initial findings of the project “Discrimination vs. Data Control in Brazilian Smart Cities”, run by FGV and supported by the Open Society Foundations
  55. Diversity:
  56. The panel is gender-balanced and includes speakers from all UN Regional Groups and all stakeholder groups. Speakers have been chosen for their heterogeneous background and standpoints and for being IGF newcomers thus guaranteeing that fresh ideas and unexplored perspective will be analysed during the session.
  57. Online Participation:
  58. Online participation will be promoted via various social networks (notably Twitter, Facebook and YouTube) to allow remote interventions and interactions with participants. The remote moderator will encourage remote participation through various social networking platforms in addition to the platform provided by the IGF Secretariat
  59. Discussion Facilitation:
  60. The workshop will be opened with a keynote by Dr Robert Mathews.
  61. Panellists will provide short and provocative presentations, illustrating case studies from different regions and different perspectives. Every panellist will have about 6 minutes to present his or her perspective in a provocative fashion, in order to trigger comments and reactions from the participants.
