Towards a Sustainable City: Evaluating a Dynamic Model for Urban Operation
Keywords:

This paper examines the theory of the polycentric city, building on the transformation of urban operations that occurred during the pandemic. It investigates how cities and their residents adapted to measures and precautions during the pandemic, exploring the potential for a new dynamic model. This model incorporates an updated polycentric theory, integrates new technology, and adheres to sustainable development principles, with the aim of creating a sustainable, climate-friendly, and user-centric urban environment. As part of an ongoing research effort, the primary objective is to evaluate this emerging model using economic theory, specifically through a cost-efficiency analysis. This analysis seeks to establish foreseeable outcomes, quantify potential benefits on environmental, economic, and social levels, and determine their impact. The approach involves an ex-ante evaluation, utilizing simulation techniques and indicators to define cost-effectiveness ratios. Additionally, mental mapping activities are employed to promote inclusive decision-making processes involving the community.
