30th ICE IEEE/ITMC - Inclusive Sustainability: Strategies for Sustainable Digital Solutions in the Twin Transition for Vulnerable Communities
Conference papers
Inclusive sustainability for vulnerable communities in the context of the digital twin transition necessitates a holistic approach that considers socio-economic disparities, cultural sensitivities, and accessibility barriers. By actively involving marginalized social groups in the design, implementation, and governance of digital twin initiatives, stakeholders can foster empowerment, resilience, and social cohesion. Strategies for inclusive sustainability must bridge the digital divide, enhance digital literacy, and promote participatory decision-making processes, while addressing systemic inequalities and promoting social justice. By prioritizing the needs and voices of vulnerable communities and embracing sustainability principles, societies can leverage digital twin technologies to create a more resilient, equitable, and sustainable future for all.
