Despite the extensive body of literature dedicated to smart cities and communities, the concept remains fuzzy due to its multidimensional and multifaceted nature that extends beyond the mere use of technology and infrastructure. In this regard, technology is a necessary condition for becoming a smart city or smart community, but it is not the only aspect considered when analyzing digital developments in our living environment. It should be integrated with the natural and built environments to enable and empower citizens, through individual and/or communal quests for wellbeing.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: ArialMT;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">In recent years, emerging technologies have undoubtedly provided many possibilities for developing smart cities and communities and also brought opportunities to solve urban and community challenges. An increased number of studies indicate that emerging technologies significantly influence social life, catalyzing new needs of citizens and transforming how they are addressed, influencing people’s ability to exercise their “right to the city/community” and affecting social sustainability. While Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) implementation have traditionally dominated the discourse on smart cities and communities, significant challenges remain regarding the governance, digital inclusion, strategic planning, resilience, and social and cultural sustainability of these technological contexts. Issues such as city and community governance, information integration, data quality, privacy and security, institutional arrangements, resilience, inclusion, sustainability, and citizen participation require greater attention to plan human-centered smart solutions and monitor the social consequences of their implementation. The growing popularity of technologies such as artificial intelligence, metaverse, chatbots, open data, big data, blockchain, and so on, have opened new avenues for addressing these issues in the urban and communities’ contexts, but they have also brought some other challenges such as ethical issues or a new wave of digital divide and/or inclusion of citizens with low-tech skills, which requires continuous research in this area.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: ArialMT;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">This minitrack aims to explore the aforementioned topics, with a particular focus on the social challenges faced during the implementation of smart solutions as well as on the impact these initiatives have on the community, to understand how new technologies can shape the decision-making processes, resilience, sustainability, and livability of local communities and, as a result, the wellbeing of their residents.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: ArialMT;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 10pt;
