The Global Planning Education Association Network (GPEAN), of which the AAPS is a member, will host the 2011 World Planning Schools Conference (WPSC) in Perth, Australia. The theme of WPSC 2011 is ‘Planning’s Future – Futures Planning: Planning in an Era of Global (Un)Certainty and Transformation’.
The organisers expect to attract up to 1,000 delegates and broadly aim to ‘create an environment that will give rise to cutting-edge ideas and collaborations – innovations and advances that will, in turn, better equip policymakers to tackle the many and varied issues facing us all’. A media statement from the University of Western Australia, with information about the conference, is available here.
