Abstract

EVALUATING THE DEVELOPMENT OF SMART COMMUNITIES: A PUBLIC VALUE PERSPECTIVEThis exploratory research explains how Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) signify a pledge by United Nations Member States in or order to practise development efforts. Such as reducing the high level of poverty and zero hunger, promote education and community well-being, implementing global peace as well as protecting the planet. Thus, the central governments across the globe are pursuing regular efforts to focus on public governance, information sharing and social value. However, from the public value perspective, the central government must have sufficient capacity to operate these tremendous tasks as it is critical for employing SDGs. Moreover, central governments are responsible for taking serious action on the (SDGs), by improving public governance and decisionmaking process through public participation. To achieve the aim of this research, a conceptual framework is developed to explore how concurrent is the public services delivery and how can be globally enhanced through the lens of public value. In order to match central and local government authorities, civil society and academia in regards to current conditions such as policy-level that enabled by government and academia corporation. The literature in the field of public governance and public policies as the main implementation means for SDGs to understand and strengthen the sustainable development policy through public engagement. Central government and local government authorities need to work even more closely to support leadership approaches that make the circumstances event better for fruitful information sharing and adding value to the wider community. Moreover, an evaluation of government SDGs and public policy through the lens of Public Value offers a novel and a critical contribution to the central government's policy.
