This study investigates Media Architecture (MA) as an emerging discipline within Media and Information Literacy Cities (MIL Cities), which aim to integrate Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) into urban environments to promote digital inclusion, access to information, and citizen participation. While smart cities have already explored the use of ICTs for the benefit of citizens, Media Architecture remains underexplored in the Brazilian urban context. This study is justified by the need for a public space open to democratic debate, which is essential to engage a plural and informed society. The study will employ narrative review to explore how Media Architecture can strengthen the bond between city and citizens, enhancing civic participation and enriching urban life
