- Summary:
- This book provides a comprehensive exploration of the development and management of Smart Villages, focusing on both theoretical frameworks and practical applications. It introduces the concept of Smart Villages through a comparative analysis of European and non-European initiatives, presenting case studies that illustrate how communities leverage innovative technologies, governance models, and sustainable practices to enhance the quality of life. The work examines the Italian context in detail, addressing challenges such as depopulation and the revitalization of small municipalities, while also outlining relevant European and national regulatory frameworks that support Smart Village initiatives. Key strategies for rehabilitation, safeguarding, and enhancement of rural areas are discussed, with a focus on stakeholders, smart governance, digitalization, and the integration of tangible and intangible heritage. The book further presents tools for managing Smart Villages, including guidelines, best practices, business plans, and management protocols, alongside examples of their implementation and monitoring. A dedicated section on smart networks explores how villages can collaborate to maximize innovation and resilience. This book serves as a valuable resource for researchers, policymakers, practitioners, and students interested in rural development, providing insights, methodologies, and practical instruments to foster sustainable and intelligent communities worldwide.
