"SAVE THE DATE
World Town Planning Day
Online Conference 2011
Going Public: Spaces in our Communities
1-2 November 2011
Welcome back,
It’s that time of year again in which planning professionals from around the world start to think about how they are going to contribute to this increasingly popular event – the World Town Planning Day Online Conference.
History of the WTPD Online Conference
This will be the third WTPD Online Conference and we are looking to continue breaking the attendance record every year. This initiative was borne out of a group of passionate planners chatting and wanting to share thoughts and ideas with other equally passionate professionals from around the world. Now we have planning associations from all continents represented on the Organizing Committee, intent on growing this event, and supporting its development as the ultimate way to celebrate World Town Planning Day every year.
Evaluation of 2010 Conference
We received great feedback throughout last year’s event and there is obviously an appetite for this event to continue. We are currently working on the final preparations for this year’s event and so if there are any other matters we should take into consideration, we would welcome any comments.
Please click on the link below to fill out our very brief survey on last year’s conference.
The survey has only eight questions and should take just a few minutes to fill out. We thank you in advance for helping us improve to have a better conference this year.
2011 WTPD Online Congress Theme – Going Public: Spaces in our Communities
The focus for this year’s Conference is our public spaces. We will share ideas from around the world, about how we are planning for and designing our public spaces to be even more public, as well as supplement for less private space.
Attached to this email is the official Call for Proposals, so if you’d like to propose a session for this year’s conference please take a look. if you have any questions or responses to the comments above to our 2011 Conference Chair, Laura Buhl (planningtheworld@gmail.com).
We look forward to your attendance at the 2011 WTPD Online Conference in November.
Regards,
The WTPD Online Congress Committee"
