Learning areas

Based on our findings, we have prioritised the following areas of learning that will support the cities to successfully drive digital transformation.

These areas will be introduced to the cities over the course of Phases 2 and 3 of the ASToN project. This will be done through introduction of a number of different tools and methodology such as Design Thinking or Agile. These will be introduced for cities to use in their local contexts, throughout the local activities set out by the ASToN project.

The tools and methods often support a number of these learning areas, and so mutually reinforce one another. Crucially, we know that by being open to developing new skills and capabilities, the cities will also be developing, or deepening, the mindset required for digital transformation.
