    Abstract

“Smart Cities” and “Smart Communities” have been recurrent keywords in 
countless projects and initiatives in the last decade, addressed to the 
emerging problems of our cities in the XXI century: pollution monitoring 
systems, smart grids, devices for remote health monitoring, robots for 
assisting aging population, traffic management systems are some 
examples. Recently the smart city rhetoric has attracted an increasing 
number of critics because most of the funding agendas and of the 
proposed solutions are ascribable to forms of technocratic and market 
driven governance -often bound to black box technologies and data- which 
do not really address the real causes of the complex urban issues. To 
recover the neglected role of societies in the urban governance, several 
counter-proposals are rooted on the notions of social and civic rights, 
citizens active participation through technology, and on the idea of 
urban digital commons. The 10th Nexa Conference is focused on the 
latter: we will discuss the role of urban digital commons in shaping the 
future governance of our cities, in the context of two ongoing projects: 
the Digital Open Urban Twin at the Future Urban Legacy Lab, and the 
H2020 project DECODE.
