How can public sector planners be agile within the planning system?

The English planning system is often blamed for slowing down development — but is this really true? Local authority officers are in a unique position to identify space for agility and innovation from within the system.

Join us for an interactive exercise in how to approach complex planning decisions in creative ways. This Public Practice Talk brings together local government officers from different councils to share and compare their learnings.

Whether you work at a local authority or in the wider built environment industry, or if you are curious about a career in placemaking, join us to find out the questions, challenges, and inspiration on our Associates' minds after one year in the public sector.

We are a not-for-profit we believes that the public sector has a key role in improving the quality, equality and sustainability or everyday places and we work to build a greater understanding across the built environment sector of its potential.
