Description

PLANNING TERRITORIES BY NAVIGATING IN UNCERTAINTIES

CRISES, COLLECTIVE ACTIONS AND DECISIONS FOR TRANSFORMATIVE PRACTICES

The conference explores uncertainty as a constant feature of planning processes that we tackle and navigate, but also as an opportunity that opens space for experimentation and transformative practices, together with wickedness across multiple planning domains without limiting the agenda to a single sector.
By connecting planning theories, governance and policy analysis, and innovative approaches and methods, the conference aims to attract an interdisciplinary and international audience - including participants beyond Europe and from non-member institutions - while offering a coherent scientific focus on how planning can cope with uncertainties in the double perspective mentioned above.
The programme will combine track-related keynote lectures, parallel sessions, a plenary debate, three thematic hands-on workshops and a concluding joint workshop designed to synthesize key insights, methodological lessons, and future agendas for research and planning practice in uncertainties.
