On June 20,2016, a memorandum of understanding was signed between the city of Dubai and the Lagos State Government , at the Emirate Towers in Dubai. The Lagos Smart City project is described as an initiative ‘aimed at providing state-of- the-art information and communications technology (ICT) infrastructure to deliver social amenities: security ,communication and collaboration ’.
But what does it mean and how can Lagos become a smart city? This workshop will unpack the meaning of `smart’ within the context of Lagos, using Yaba as a case study, a design competition will be launched focusing on smart culture, economy ,and mobility.
