Call for Proposals - Closed. (Deadline for submissions -November 22, 2021)
In preparation for the 2022 national planning conference, we are asking questions, big questions, and difficult ones. We are asking planners, aspiring planners, community builders, and those in allied professions to consider some of the most complex and interdependent issues of today and tomorrow:
- How can we elevate our responses to meet the challenges of climate change?
- How can the profession advance and champion reconciliation in our communities?
- How can we improve transportation planning and affordable housing in both rural and urban environments in Canada to meet the needs of a rapidly changing population?
- How can we do all of this, while still creating healthy communities, where leisure and recreation are valued and prioritized?
- To answer these questions, we need innovative ways of thinking. We need a diversity of voices and perspectives. We need new tools and approaches to our practice. We also need to know how to fund innovations in our communities. We need each other.
The conference committee has now opened its online call for proposals across seven different themes and streams to help fill a few remaining program spaces. Click here to learn more about the call for proposals & submit online.
The extended deadline for online submissions is November 22, 2021.
