Artigo Científico A systematic literature review of citizen science in urban studies and regional urban planning: policy, practical, and research implications(2025) Beck, Donizete; Mitkiewicz, JulianaCitizen Science (CS) has been useful in research development and policymaking, where laypeople contribute to collecting and/or analyzing data. With the technological advancement of smart cities and data analysis techniques, CS helps foster efficient/sustainable cities and data-driven decision-making. However, more effort is needed to make CS more accessible for urban scholars and practitioners. Thus, we provided a comprehensive overview of CS in Urban Studies and Regional Urban Planning (USRUP) by revealing the main thematic/method approaches, stakeholder roles, socioeconomic/environ mental/policy impacts, limitations, best practices, and cases. Thus, we performed a Systematic Literature Review on CS in USRUP using the PRISMA Guidelines of 94 studies collected from the Web of Science Core Collection, published by 2023. Our key findings underscore the practical uses of diverse methodologies and approaches employed in CS projects, emphasizing their potential to enhance urban research and policymaking. The core socioeconomic impacts of CS projects are fostering community empowerment, engagement, and educational opportunities. The main environmental impacts are enhancing monitoring capabilities, improving ecosystem service assessments, and supporting adaptive management practices. As for urban planning and policies, CS projects can foster data-driven planning, urban sustainability, urban resilience, healthier cities, and social equity. CS challenges include data quality and consistency, the digital divide, and the need for sustained funding. Best practices have included clear communication, standardized protocols, and strong community engagement. Further developments should involve citizens in more analytical roles (rather than merely instrumental ones, like data collection) in CS projects and explore CS in social urbanism for transforming vulnerable communities.Artigo Científico Urban Performance: A Systematic Literature Review Performance urbana: una revisión sistemática de la literatura sobre estudios urbanos(2024) Beck, Donizete; Ferasso, MarcosThe focus here is to explore and organize the literature of urban studies on urban performance and the main indicators used. This study applies a literature review analysing a sample of 47 papers gathered from the Scopus database. All of the selected papers are concerned with urban studies, urban management, and urban planning. This study provides a guide for scholars and practitioners containing the main indicators used for measuring urban performance and how they can effectively explore those indicators to produce better research and policies. Findings reveal a synthesis of the most used indicators for measuring the urban performance of the mainstream approaches in urban studies (socioeconomic and demographic; environmental; smart cities; urban design, built environment, and territory; public administration, government, and governance; energy efficiency; sustainability and sustainable development; transportation and mobility; benchmarking; and global cities). Also provided are how these indicators can be better explored by scholars and practitioners. The social and managerial contributions of this paper lie in its synthesis of urban performance indicators, which can be useful for scholars to improve their research as well as to enable urban planners and managers to work more efficiently with urban policies and thus improve the desired urban performance for one or various approaches.
