Today marks the 75th anniversary of World Town Planning Day 🌍
This year the theme is ‘Homes Start with Planning’. Town planning is at the heart of building liveable, resilient, and vibrant places where people can thrive through the creation of sustainable infrastructure and promoting social equity.
As places grow and face new challenges, it’s more important than ever for planners to think critically and creatively about how we can build for the future while preserving the best of our past.
Today, we recognise the efforts of planners who work to balance the complexities of economic growth, sustainable development, conservation and preservation of our historic and natural environment whilst providing safe and connected spaces for everyone.
