Event Description
This event explores the critical role of local and spatial planning in fostering sustainable growth within communities. As urbanization and population pressures continue to rise, effective planning has become paramount in shaping resilient cities, fostering economic development, and addressing housing needs. Experts from the fields of urban planning, policy, and development will discuss the key principles behind local and spatial plans, how these frameworks align with national strategies, and how they can guide future growth while balancing environmental and social considerations. Join us to learn how these vital planning tools are helping to create vibrant, well-connected, and future-proof communities.
