Paper Abstract:
|
The modern urban planning environment is characterized by complex spaces and multi-phased issues. The need for qualitative, holistic planning is greater than ever to address these complexities. Recently the practice and scholarship of planning has shifted from physical design to process. This article suggests changes to the current theoretical planning approach, as a result of the findings from the process followed in practice. It draws conclusions from the Land Use Policy Framework (LUPF) recently introduced in the North West Province in South Africa, which included innovative ideas to address future planning and which can contribute to the current planning education approach, in a way to bridge theory and practice. |
