Abstract

The global reliance on scientific and technological progress presents a significant opportunity or promoting sustainable development. a key paradigm in today’s globalized world. Concepts such as Smart City and Green City have been widely adopted, particularly by Western countries, as part of the transition toward more sustainable urban living. Striking a balance between environmental sustainability and technological progress is important, especially for ensuring the well-being of future generations. This research seeks to integrate the concepts of Smart City and Green City into a unified framework that supports the sustainable development goals (SDGs). The study highlights that such integration can enhance the efficiency and quality of urban life while maintaining environmental responsibility. Given the current global challenges, including climate change, environmental degradation, natural resource depletion, and pollution, the need for this integration is urgent. In addition, the research emphasizes that public awareness has not been fully able to contribute to the achievement of SDGs.
