We consider it reasonable to implement the Cities of the Future project largely on the basis of the Dobro Platform and the respective Association of Volunteer Centers, since this endeavor must be focused around ideology and common sense, and this will be the most adequate entry point into the project, setting it up for proper public presentation and the involvement of key development institutions and the state. The worldview vector of this Platform, although it may require some refinement and broader deployment, generally corresponds with the general future ideological vector of Russia and is aligned with the scope of the Cities of the Future project to be carried out under Russia’s flag.
Another issue of fundamental importance for joint development of the different aspects of the future life order is the consolidating ideological function of the common denominator of Good, which the namesake Platform ("Dobro" means "Good" in Russian) can be responsible for.
Since the concept of the Cities of the Future is based on the overarching idea of good and the «Dobro» Platform is already in operation, we suggest the following name for the project: Cities of the Future – "Dobro.City."
Of course, the overview in this article is somewhat simplistic, and the model of the Cities of the Future needs to be elaborated in more detail, which will be done in the process of working on this large-scale project.
