8. Smart Citizens make Resilient Cities
โข Take responsibility for the place they live, work and love in;
โข Value access over ownership, contribution over power;
โข Ask forgiveness, not permission;
โข Know where they can get the tools, knowledge and support
they need;
โข Value empathy, dialogue and trust;
โข Appropriate technology, rather than accept itย as is;
โข Help the people that struggle with smart stuff;
โข Ask questions, then more questions, before they come up
with answers;
โข Actively take part in design efforts to come up with better
solutions;
โข Work agile, prototype early, test quickly and know when to
start over;
โข Will not stop in the face of huge barriers;
โข Unremittingly share their knowledge and their learning,
because this is where true value comes from.
