What will the cities of the future look like? How will cities adapt to urbanisation, increased pressure on public infrastructure and utilities? How will policymakers ensure that new “smart city” technologies are implemented in a safe, efficient and ethical manner? Will our cities overcome these challenges to become more pleasant places to live, or become dystopian sprawls? 

The answers to these questions and many more are discussed in the Future of Cities 2022, as part of the latest Digital Insights publication by Konrad-Adenauer-Foundation Cambodia (KAS) and EuroCham. The book brings together insights from a diverse group of authors, academics, and practitioners, to view the future of cities from different perspectives in a constructive manner.
