Abstract: Objective – To analyze and propose an integrated conceptual model for the urban planning of smart cities, based on the articulation of technological, human, and institutional dimensions.Methodology – Theoretical-conceptual study developed through systematic review and critical analysis of interdisciplinary literature in the fields of urbanism, information science, public governance, and digital ethics.Originality/relevance – This study contributes to filling gaps related to the prevailing technocentric view in smart city approaches, by proposing a multidimensional framework grounded in the principles of sustainability, urban justice, and citizen participation.Results – The article proposes a multidimensional conceptual model, in which technology is mediated by transparent public institutions and oriented by social demands, resulting in contextualized, ethical, and inclusive urban solutions.Theoretical/methodological contributions – The main theoretical contribution lies in the formulation of a relational analytical framework for smart urban planning. Methodologically, the article systematizes references from multiple disciplines into an integrative and replicable approach.Social and environmental contributions – The proposed model supports the development of more resilient, equitable, and sustainable cities, reinforcing practices of democratic governance, citizen empowerment, and the reduction of territorial inequalities.
