dc.description.abstractThe rapid rate of urbanization and increased infrastructural complexities significantly affects achieving the targets of Sustainable Development Goal 11 (SDG 11). Digital Twin Technology (DTT) has emerged as a promising and transformative tool, yet there is a lack of comprehensive understanding of its potential impact on SDG 11 within the New Zealand (NZ) context. This research examines how DTT can advance SDG11 by analysing its application, benefits, challenges, and implications within the NZ context. The novelty of this study lies in its use of a mixed-method approach as it integrates NZ specific trend analysis, keyword analysis, and an interrelationship network diagram. This comprehensive methodology employed provides a unique understanding on how DTT advancement can be adapted to NZ's urban landscape. The findings highlight critical challenges, including data integration, cross sector collaboration, and governance barriers which hinder widespread adoption. The study underscores the importance of Knowledge Sharing and Transfer (KS&T) to translate insights into local actions effectively. In addition, the interrelationship network diagram highlights the need for a holistic approach towards DTT implementation in the context of urban sustainability. These insights can play a fundamental role for guiding policymakers and shaping urban development strategies both in NZ and globally.
