dc.description.abstractThis presentation examines how Generation Z is addressed in the scientific literature at the intersection of smart cities and urban sustainability. Through a critical review of recent research, it identifies recurring themes and dominant approaches that frame Generation Z both as a driver of innovation and as a critical social actor within contemporary urban transformations. The literature highlights Generation Z’s advanced digital skills and technological fluency as key enablers of eco-efficient urban practices and data-driven sustainability initiatives. At the same time, strong emphasis is placed on participatory, co-creation, and bottom-up approaches, positioning young people as active contributors to the design, governance, and evaluation of smart city strategies. Beyond this optimistic framing, the analysis also reveals a growing body of critical scholarship that problematizes smart city technologies when they reinforce social inequalities, exclude marginalized voices, or lack ethical and democratic grounding. Overall, the presentation argues that Generation Z is increasingly represented not only as a beneficiary or user of smart city technologies, but as an engaged and reflexive social group capable of both shaping and contesting prevailing models of urban sustainability.eng
