Abstract Evolution of smart governance addresses challenges of urbanization, resource constraints, and sustainability by prioritizing citizen engagement and inclusive urban development. This chapter examines the integration of participatory governance models, emphasizing theoretical frameworks such as social capital theory and the technology acceptance model to explore dynamics of community involvement. Models like Arnstein's Ladder of Citizen Participation and the IAP2 Spectrum highlight the varying levels of citizen influence in decision-making. Emerging trends suchas gamified engagement, real-time data utilization, and the use of augmented and virtual reality reshape citizen participation. The chapter emphasizes the significance of ethical frameworks, digital literacy initiatives, and equitable resource allocation for sustainable smart city development, providing practical insights for policymakers and researchers. © 2025, IGI Global Scientific Publishing.
