5 Internet of Things (IoT): ITU define Internet of things (IoT) as a global infrastructure for the information society, enabling advanced services by interconnecting (physical and virtual) things based on existing and evolving interoperable information and communication technologies [ITU-T Y.2060]

7 Trends in Urban Population in the Arab States The average urban growth rate of approximately 2.2% per annum The next decade is likely to see a growth in urban population of 55 million or 15% There could be more than 55 cities of 1 Million more inhabitants across the region by 2025 Sources: UNHABITAT

8 Urbanisation Challenges in the Arab Region Urbanization is driven by economic development, migration to oil-rich countries, drought and conflict (importance varying by sub-region). In 2014 there were 14.1 million refugees, 5.1 million internally displaced people, and 15 million international (economic) migrants Several primary cities have become extended metropolitan regions, some are actual or emerging mega-urban regions with complex issues of regional-wide urban governance, authority conflicts and governance voids Highly-centralized government modalities weaken relationships between citizens and local government Affordable housing shortage (speculatively escalating land prices, cumbersome and expensive property registration and limited access to housing finance) Urban informal settlements in some part of the Arab Region Security of urban water and food insecurity are key defining social problems Youth bulge (60% of population below 25 years) and unemployment rates Marginalisation and poverty induced by lack of mobility have fuelled recent political polarisation in the region Internal trade is underutilized - need for greater intra-arab cooperation Sources: UNHABITAT

10 Smart Sustainable Cities Transformation models There are two common transformation models that are being used to create smart and sustainable cities (SSC). The Greenfield model that seeks to create SSC from scratch whereas the Brownfield model seeks to crate SSC through modification of the old cities.

11 Arab Countries with SSC Initiatives 10 out of 22 Arab countries have embraced the concept of smart and sustainable cities and have a SSC initiative. Some of the key challenges identified include (Government Summit, 2015): a) Inadequate sustainable financial investment in SSC projects b) Difficulty in citizen adjustment to new ways of accessing services. c) Coordination and integration between public, private and civil bodies for the purpose of making a city function as one organism in an efficient and effective manner. d) Inadequate ICT infrastructure; technological obsolescence; and poor inter- and intrasystem interoperability. e) Political instability and high rate of youth unemployment.

26 ICT solutions towards attainment of the UN 17 SDGs (SC&C) Transformative ICT solutions can deliver smart buildings with substantially reduced energy consumption and CO2 emissions while relying on decentralized micro-grids to increase community resilience. ICT can also support multistakeholder financing, by reaching out to a stakeholders. ITU had developed a matrix for The World Summit on the Information Society (WSIS) actions and SDGs (Click Here)

28 ITU Arab Regional Initiative for (SC&C) ARB4: Internet of things, smart cities and big data Objective: To raise and spread awareness of the importance of future challenges in the era of Internet of things (IoT) and big data, and how to address such challenges; establish regulatory frameworks and take measures to help cope with the rapid changes in the field of telecommunications and information technology; and work to ensure the transition to smart cities and communities (SCCs).

29 Expected results Assisting countries to: 1) Formulate strategic and operational plans and regulatory frameworks to cope with IoT and big data technology and formulate a road map for the Arab region for the transition to SCCs by developing the telecommunication infrastructure to deliver the broadband services to support their various applications and services 2) Promote technical cooperation and the exchange of expertise between the Arab countries in the area of IoT, big data and SCCs, study the impact thereof, whether positive or negative, and take advantage of global experience 3) Organize a high-level forum on the IoT and big data to discuss the main challenges, such as security, privacy and system compatibility, and the most prominent solutions, including digital object architecture; invite experts from industry to address the forum, and hold a side meeting on the fringes of the forum with industry and the private sector 4) Get access to key studies, research and expertise on the IoT and smart cities, including big data for Arab States, on a page devoted to the initiative on the website of the Arab Regional Office, and to help those Arab States that so wish to obtain advice in this area 5) Build Arab capacities in the use of big data as a supplementary or alternative method and low-cost resource for measuring Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) indicators, while enhancing the capacities of stakeholders to implement and analyse big data to measure key development indicators 6) Construct secure infrastructures to store the enormous amounts of data needed to create a smart environment 7) Identify and make use of existing centres of excellence and research and study centres in the Arab States to provide experts and expertise in the areas of the initiative; enter into cooperative partnerships and agreements to help raise the level of availability of broadband services in the Arab States; and use IoT and big data for development, formulate smart city indicators and measure progress on a regular basis.
