Post müasir dövrün tələblərinə uyğun olaraq inkişafın növbəti mərhələsi olaraq Azərbaycanda “ağıllı kənd” layihələri üzrə planlar hazırlamağa başlamışdır. Bu barədə 28 oktyabr 2018-ci il tarixində Qax Damazlıq İpəkçilik Stansiyasının açılışında prezident İlham Əliyevə məlumat verilmişdir. Azərbaycanın işğal altında qalan ərazilərinin 2020-ci ildə 44 günlük müharibənin yekununda azad edilməsi ilə bu prosses daha da genişlənmişdir. Hazırda Zəngilan rayonunun Üçüncü Ağalı kəndinin pilot layihə üzrə “smart kənd” şəklində yenidən qurulmasına başlanılmasına başlanılmışdır. Lakin, həyata keçirilən layihələrin ən əsas zəif tərəfi bu günə hesablanması və gələcək inkişaf üçün potensialın nəzərə alınmamasıdır. Azərbaycan “smart layihələr” sahəsində hələ yenicə addımlar atan bir ölkə olaraq daha irəli gələcəyi düşünərək mövcud tendensiyaları nəzərə alaraq təkmilləşdirmə bazası yaradaraq davranmalıdır. Bu inkişaf prinsipinin dominantlığı hələ 1995-ci ildə Heydər Əliyev tərəfindən irəli sürülmüş “geriləmə ilə inkişaf” xəttinə də uyğundur. Təklif olunan cari konsepsiyada bütün bunlar nəzərə alınmışdır.
Qısa müddətdə tarixi Şuşa şəhərinin, Ağoğlan qəsəbəsinin, Füzuli şəhərinin Baş Planının ilkin variantının hazır olması göstərir ki, təkcə kəndlərin “ağıllı kənd” prinsipi ilə deyil, tamamiylə dağıdılmış Azərbaycan şəhərlərinin də “ağıllı şəhər” prinsipi ilə yenidən qurulmasına qərar verilmişdir. Azərbaycanın tutmuş olduğu liderlik yolu və elm, texnologiya, sosial xidmətlərin təşkili, iqtisadiyyatın təşkili, alternativ mənbələrdən alınan enerjiyə keçid və enerji səmərəliliyi, ümumilikdə dövlətin fəaliyyətinin effektiv həyata keçirilməsinin bütün əsas sahələrində davamlı və inklüziv inkişafı təmin etməklə qabaqcıl ölkələrə çatmaq və ötmək siyasəti növbəti mərhələdə dövrün bütün çağırışlarına adekvat cavab verə bilən adaptiv inkişafı zəruri edir. Təqdim olunan “Smart Azərbaycan” konsepsiyası imkanlar, təhdidlər, risklər və gözləntilər də nəzərə alınmaqla mövcud resurslardan istifadənin rasionallığı baxımından Azərbaycan üçün müstəsna əhəmiyyətli innovativ dövlət idarəçilyi və vətəndaşların üst mərhələ yaşayış tərzinə keçid üçün əhəmiyyətli çərçivə sənədi hesab oluna bilər.

“If the facilities available in the cities are not made available to rural population, the Governments will not
have done their duties” Dr.A.P.J.AbdulKalam, Former President of India. Smart Villages is a community based
initiativeofSamanvay.Com Welfare Society, primarily aimed to harness the benefits of information technology forth
rural folks. The initiative is a community effort to mobilize the collective strengths of people from various streams and
integrate it with information technology to provide benefits to the rural community. Gandhian Concept of Ideal Village-
SWARAJ. Gandhi Ji said, my idea of Village Swaraj is that it is a complete republic, independent of its neighbors for its
own vital wants, and yet interdependent for many others in which dependence is a necessity. Reconstruction of rural
India on the basis of the concept of ideal village was Gandhian dream because it embodies great environmental
ambiance needed for healthy human living. Theoretically, Gandhian approach to rural development maybe labeled as
‘idealist’. It attaches supreme importance to moral values and gives primacy to moral values over material conditions

Over the recent decades people’s (rural and urban) communities are facing numerous social and economic changes and challenges. Some of those challenges have been increasingly addressed through the lenses of technological developments and digitalization. In this paper we have made a review of already existing practices while focusing on the existing implementations of the smart village concept and the importance of digital transformation for rural areas. We give special attention to EU policies which we are using as an already existing framework for understanding our own forthcoming examples. We have shown the parallels between the findings and insights from different regions and made an evaluation of presented practices. Our main argument stems from our own previous experiences and experiences of other research approaches, and is grounded on the argument that rural areas are not uniform, and that smart rural development has to be applied in combination with place-based approac...

Over recent decades, people's (rural and urban) communities are facing numerous social and economic changes and challenges.

We give special attention to EU policies that we are using as an already existing framework for understanding our own forthcoming examples. We have shown the parallels between the findings and insights from different regions and made an evaluation of presented practices. Our main argument stems from our own previous experiences and experiences of other research approaches, and is grounded on the argument that rural areas are not uniform, and that smart rural development has to be applied in combination with place-based approach. We present the cases of Slovenian pilot practices and support our argument by proposing the FabVillage concept.

Smart-village is an emerging paradigm that tries to digitize various aspects of rural activities using various IoT technologies. Different activities like smart-agriculture, wastemanagement, irrigation-management, livestock management, smart energy, smart-healthcare, and smart-education fall under its purview. However, infrastructure and cost are two major barriers towards a smart-village implementation and sustainability, that differentiates it from a smart-city. Considering this we present the current state-of-art of smart-villages by creating a detailed taxonomy. A collaborative edge-computing model is proposed keeping in mind the resource constrains in a smart-village. Finally, the open research issues and challenges are discussed.

Abstract The majority of the population in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) lives in urban areas. In the year 2030, the percentage of the rural population is expected to be 14% in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, 11% in the United Arab Emirates, 10% in Oman, 9% in Bahrain, 1% in Qatar, and will remain 0% in Kuwait. Like many other countries, however, GCC countries continue to invest efforts and resources toward their national agendas aimed at sustainable development. In this context, smart villages are of special interest as, increasingly, they serve as the crossroads between urban living and rural life embracing history, culture, tradition, spiritual values, and human capital. The objective of this chapter is to explore actions taken toward the development of smart villages in the GCC countries, with a comparative overview on pertaining approaches and strategies; challenges related to the implementation of these actions are identified. It is demonstrated that despite GCCs’ tremendous efforts toward developing infrastructure in urban centers, more infrastructure investment is needed with regard to key issues related to developing remote areas – including their smart networks, digital facilities, and e-governance. It is also highlighted that more research is needed, especially on issues related to the transformation of villages into smart villages, including the need for holistic approaches, policies, and strategies toward smart villages

The Corona crisis offers the window of opportunity to accelerate digitization processes in food retailing. Village shops and rural consumers are traditionally not considered to be digitization pioneers. The research question is: How do the Corona pandemic and digital transformation affect village shops andtheir customers? For answering this question, we present findings of a two-wave household survey in six case study areas as well as results from qualitative interviews with operators of twelve village shops and ten experts. The experiences in theCorona crisis demonstrate the high resilience of the village shops due to increased local demand and flexible adaptation strategies. The contribution of digitization remains limited, even though this transformation is taking place evolutionary in the village shops using trial and error. One danger for village shops is that consumers tend to buy more online due to Corona. Purchasing power outflows in online retail make shop closings more lik...

Abstract
The majority of the population in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) lives in urban areas. In the year 2030, the percentage of the rural population is expected to be 14% in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, 11% in the United Arab Emirates, 10% in Oman, 9% in Bahrain, 1% in Qatar, and will remain 0% in Kuwait. Like many other countries, however, GCC countries continue to invest efforts and resources toward their national agendas aimed at sustainable development. In this context, smart villages are of special interest as, increasingly, they serve as the crossroads between urban living and rural life embracing history, culture, tradition, spiritual values, and human capital. The objective of this chapter is to explore actions taken toward the development of smart villages in the GCC countries, with a comparative overview on pertaining approaches and strategies; challenges related to the implementation of these actions are identified. It is demonstrated that despite GCCs’ tremendous efforts toward developing infrastructure in urban centers, more infrastructure investment is needed with regard to key issues related to developing remote areas – including their smart networks, digital facilities, and e-governance. It is also highlighted that more research is needed, especially on issues related to the transformation of villages into smart villages, including the need for holistic approaches, policies, and strategies toward smart villages

" Access to Information for all " that ensure the balanced development from root to vertex of a country. As village is considered as the root of every country in South Asia, it is needed to ensure the sustainable development for every village.Concept of Smart Village is arisen for this purpose where each villager is kept under the service of ICT that minimize the digital distance between urban and rural and escort the digital service along with technical help and vocational training in front of the villager's door and make their lifestyle easier and drive their economic progress. But the poor illiterate villagers do not have the luxury of accessing modern technology due to poverty and also can not gain knowledge from the internet due to their lack of education. So, there must be a group of scholars along with some dedicated volunteers and professionals working under an institution in every village to make it a smart village and contribute to the development of the country. Information, Innovation & Implementation Center (IIIC) is such an institution which will dedicatedly work on different sectors in transforming a village into a smart and sustainable one.
