YOUTH INTERNATIONAL SUMMER SCHOOL SHANGHAI 2018 Theme: THE SMART REVOLUTION: THE INTERCONNECTION BETWEEN CITY AND SOCIETY The notion of a smart city is a well-developed narrative but what do we know about a smart society? As we approach the third decade of the 21st century, cities all over the world are harnessing the power that comes with huge technological advancements made over the past twenty years. By making our urban metropolises more efficient, we are truly on our way toward shaping a better world - but only if society is able and willing to keep up with the pace. As infrastructure, education and businesses all adapt to the rapid changes taking place within our world, so must we as citizens. The smart revolution aims to optimize the performance and wellbeing of society, but technology can only do so much. In order to reach unprecedented heights, we must first begin by changing the minds and values of the architects of our new world. The International Summer School aims to discuss and examine the idea that in order to make our cities truly smart, we must start by developing a smart society. Set in the technological hub of Shanghai, China, the International Summer School is designed to foster leadership, human values and a sense of social responsibility.
