National University of Political Studies and Public Administration
Vol. 9 No. 3 (2025)
The third 2025 issue gathers eight peer‑reviewed studies that explore how data‑driven policies and emerging technologies are reshaping cities and regions across four continents. Opening with a Moroccan case study on ICT‑enabled hospital logistics, the volume then examines ways to bridge the digital divide for Generation X and Boomers in the Western Balkans. Further contributions analyse fraud‑resilient smart‑payment architectures, the rural‑urban smart‑city gap in Moldova, and Yerevan’s roadmap for upgrading legacy infrastructure through public‑private digital partnerships. An ASEM university case illustrates how virtual‑learning ecosystems accelerate educational transformation, while a Łódź (Poland) case study details open‑data governance and a municipal digital twin. The closing article assesses how internationalisation and dual‑use innovation can future‑proof regional cluster organisations.
Together, these articles provide practitioners, scholars and policy‑makers with fresh evidence on energy‑efficient infrastructure, inclusive e‑services, AI‑supported governance and cross‑border collaboration, offering actionable insights for building greener, smarter and more resilient communities.
