The New Planning Dialogue
# 5 Directing City Visions
'Directing City Visions' is a peer review session organised by Vereniging Deltametropool in collaboration with Amsterdam Municipality. In this session, five Dutch cities and five European cities are coming together to peer review their visions and action plans to structure their working method, while formulating steps towards implementation. We take the opportunity in a digital set up to have a one-to-one discussion between relevant cities, to be able to exchange city planning and vision making knowledge.
The dialogue is part of the New Planning Dialogue organized by the Association of Deltametropool. The project aims to stimulate a change in the practice of spatial planning to ensure a more sustainable and inclusive development. It uses the format of dialogue and discussions to push the paradigm shift in the practice of spatial planning that we believe is more necessary than ever. This collaborative, co-creative research project aims to create a new framework for planning that stands up to challenges of the 21st century.
