In a rapidly urbanising world where more than 50% of the global population lives in cities, the way in which cities are planned, built, operated and redeveloped has increasing social, environmental and economic importance. The concentration of people in cities continues to grow and is anticipated to double by 2050 driven by internal and external economic mobility, and migration from rural environments and global conflict zones putting direct stress on housing, infrastructure and services. Governments and city governors are increasingly developing city visions which identify long-term goals for IT (connectivity/'smart' systems/digital services), infrastructure (housing /transport /water/waste/energy/goods/food) and development (green growth/livelihood improvements) but urban sustainability is challenged by social (poverty/cohesion/inclusion/diversity), environmental (extreme weather/tectonics/disease outbreaks) and economic (recession/declining labour market/oil price fluctuations) factors which frequently operate on shorter timescales and which can impact severely on cities, urban ecosystems and people. To achieve sustainable solutions to these challenges requires innovative thinking and multidisciplinary teams of talented researchers who can develop novel approaches in partnership with communities and stakeholders locally, nationally and internationally. This project brings together such a team from the UK and India to create a SMARt ciTIES Network which will develop future thinking and new approaches to increase the sustainability of selected cities in both countries. Through networking events, workshops and entrepreneur competitions we will focus on addressing the big issues faced by urban planners and governors including traffic congestion, affordable housing, the provision of accessible, resilient and future-proof infrastructure for clean water and sanitation, transport and energy, and waste management and recycling while ensuring all citizens have equal access to and participation in a city life which is safe, secure, inclusive, healthy and desirable.

在一个迅速的城市化世界中，超过50％的全球人口居住在城市中，城市的计划，建造，运营和重建的方式具有越来越多的社会，环境和经济意义。城市中的人们的集中力量继续增长，预计到2050年，内部和外部经济流动性将翻一番，以及从农村环境和全球冲突地区迁移，对住房，基础设施和服务施加了直接压力。 Governments and city governors are increasingly developing city visions which identify long-term goals for IT (connectivity/'smart' systems/digital services), infrastructure (housing /transport /water/waste/energy/goods/food) and development (green growth/livelihood improvements) but urban sustainability is challenged by social (poverty/cohesion/inclusion/diversity), environmental (extreme weather/tectonics/disease outbreaks) and economic (recession/declining劳动力市场/石油价格波动）经常在较短的时间范围内运作，并且可能严重影响城市，城市生态系统和人员。为了实现这些挑战的可持续解决方案，需要创新的思维和有才华的研究人员组成的多学科团队，他们可以与社区，国内和国际上的社区和利益相关者合作开发新颖的方法。该项目汇集了来自英国和印度的团队，以建立一个智能城市网络，该网络将发展未来的思维和新方法，以提高两国所选城市的可持续性。通过网络活动，研讨会和企业家竞赛，我们将集中在解决城市规划师和州长所面临的重大问题，包括交通拥堵，负担得起的住房，提供可及的，可及的，有弹性的和未来的基础设施，以清洁水和卫生，运输和能源，以及所有公民的访问和范围的范围，并确保所有公民的访问权限，并确保整个城市的生活，并确保居住和居住，并确保在整个城市中均能居住，并在整个城市中均能居住。
