Our mission and objectives
Our mission is to mobilise professional urban and regional planners to co-implement the vision enshrined in the Sustainable Development Goals and the New Urban Agenda by:
- creating a global network of practitioners
- fostering planning research, training, and education
- encouraging the professional exchange of knowledge
- promoting the planning profession and excellence in practice in all its forms
- developing and maintaining altruistic relations between members
- enhancing public awareness and understanding of major planning issues at the global level
- supporting and protecting planning interest and professional planners
One of the major connotations of ISOCARP is the one of being a real global network. Planners from all over the world can find in ISOCARP an association where to find the right people and opportunities to develop, disseminate and compare ideas, initiatives, proposals, and projects. In order to frame the multiplicity of the ISOCARP world, the national delegations operate a number of activities to keep all member informed on major events involving ISOCARP activities. National delegations have a relevant role in addressing future choices and challenges to be met by ISOCARP.
