Goyang Special City, Gyeonggi Province (Mayor Lee Dong-hwan) announced on the 17th that it held the launch ceremony of the Citizen Living Lab for the establishment of the 'Goyang Smart City Plan' on the 15th at the Goyang Smart City Support Center.

The 'Smart City Living Lab' is a citizen participation policy where citizens identify various issues in the local community and utilize the latest smart technologies such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), Big Data, and the Internet of Things (IoT) to solve them. It was established to provide citizens with opportunities to contribute to the development of a smart city by directly participating in the process of discovering and solving local problems.

The citizen participation group consists of citizens who are highly interested in smart cities, and through a total of four Living Lab activities, they plan to derive creative and innovative ideas.

By directly participating, citizens will make practical contributions to the Goyang Smart City Plan through the process of exploring new smart city services and solutions.

The results derived from the Living Lab will be reflected in the smart city plan after collecting various opinions through expert consultations and public hearings, and will be finalized with approval from the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport in the first half of next year.

A city official stated, "We expect that active citizen participation will be the driving force for Goyang City to advance into a more developed smart city."
