It delves into various aspects of technological as well as environmental changes and urban decline on human society, addressing pressing global issues such as climate change, sustainability, artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, and spatial infrastructure. The topics covered are highly relevant in today's context, given the pressing challenges of climate change, technological disruption, and urbanisation. The focus on emerging issues like AI, cybersecurity, sustainable development, and climate resilience reflects the contemporary concerns in public policy. The inclusion of diverse perspectives from contributors across different disciplines enriches the discourse on public policy.
