Topic: Discussion and validation of the research results of the project "Designing planning processes more effectively" with planning scientists and practitioners from the German-speaking countries, network building.
Brief description: The research project investigates the effect of process design in spatial planning processes. Compared to formally defined procedures, a process design adapted to the planning task according to the situation becomes more and more important. Planning methods are subject to increasing differentiation and specialisation. Access to process design is achieved through the interaction of the three essential basic components of planning methods: Analysis, visualization, communication. The innovative approach of the project refers to the value of existing and future procedures in planning processes through their systematic combination. The research project thereby systematically brings together experiences from different disciplines, methodological specialisations and different spatial scale levels.
