The committee's fields of work:
1. Dissemination of the Local Digital Agenda model, whose momentum has been the main task of the Committee over the last four years, and that continues to be an extremely useful tool to advance the goal of digital, competitive and collaborative cities in a structured and planned manner, while also advancing the Smart City Agenda. 2. Identification and strengthening of the factors that make cities innovative, such as attracting and generating knowledge, improving education and learning throughout life, and support from local powers for economic sectors based on creativity and technological knowledge. 3. Positioning of cities as leaders in territorial innovation processes for their ability to articulate highly participatory and efficient networks. 4. Creating an efficient cooperative network consisting of UCLG member cities to tap into the creativity, innovation and knowledge with a view to sharing, assimilating and adapting to local needs and thus create new opportunities for all.
