| Abstract | ||
| Despite the widely recognized key role of smart city practices in optimizing cities' capacities to predict disasters and unexpected shocks, their contribution to enabling urban resilience remains unclear. In this context, the aim of this study to explore the role of smart city practices in improving urban resilience in Amman, Jordan. To this end, we developed an assessment framework consisting of six dimensions of smart city and 13 capacities of urban resilience, totaling 68 indicators. Regression results reveal that Amman has made significant progress in enhancing urban resilience through smart solutions across various domains, including the smart environment, smart economy, smart governance, smart living, and smart people. However, the contribution of smart mobility to urban resilience is limited compared to other domains. Based on these findings, this study offers important insights for policymakers and researchers seeking to strengthen the link between smart city practices and urban resilience, ultimately promoting urban resilience. | ||
