Assaí

Assaí is a Brazilian municipality, located in the north of the state of Paraná, with a population of around 18,000 inhabitants. A Japanese colony was settled in Acaí, which allowed the city to obtain great prominence in the world due to its exclusive concept of smart city, specific for small cities, called Sun Valley.

Universal and equal access to internet and digital literacy

Privacy, data protection and literacy

Transparency, accountability and non-discrimination of data, content and algorithms
