link<\/a><\/b><\/p>\nContext:\u00a0<\/b>In the UK, a number of our part-time students (young practitioners) seem to be disappointed by what they see as planners having a limited ability to make a difference \u2013 And they also appear to be unaware of the range of strategies the preceding generation in the 1990s adopted \u2013 to change the status quo \u2013 for example, on planning\u2019s role in promoting Sustainable Design and Construction at the time.<\/u><\/u><\/p>\n
One aim of this Thematic Issue is to capture the inspiring legacy of pro-active sustainable planning practices from various perspectives of the recent past \u2013 And to use that record to look to the future role & potential opportunities to move the sustainable urbanism agenda forward, regardless of neoliberal barriers.<\/u><\/u><\/p>\n
Another aim is to generate a discussion between Educators and Practitioners about planning expertise and emerging forms of agency \u2013 to enable frameworks for future transformative practices to emerge. Consequently, we would also welcome, and would look to include a couple of commentaries, opinion pieces and considered replies from readers \u2013 to the papers in this issue.<\/u><\/u><\/p>\n
The theme of agency in planning is also relevant to designers experience of interacting with planners – and critical papers \/ case studies from a range of (academic, activist, design practitioner, &\/or community) perspectives would be particularly welcome.<\/u><\/u><\/p>\n
