PIA RURAL, REGIONAL & REMOTE VIRTUAL CONFERENCE 2024
PIA Rural, Regional & Remote Conference 2024 is themed “Reinvention: Planning in a time of change” and it’s all about how the planning profession can seize opportunities in this moment of change.
Today, and tomorrow, the Planning Institute of Australia is delivering an innovative conference bringing together planners from throughout rural and regional Australia. I, as the Regional Planning Coordinator, of #NorthernTasmania, together with over 400 delegates (virtually) as I look forward to another fantastic program and well planned, inclusive event - #PIARuralRegional24!
2024 REINVENTION: PLANNING IN A TIME OF CHANGE
We live in an era of unprecedented social, environmental, economic, and technological changes – and these changes are reinventing how we plan the future of Australia’s communities.
The 2024 conference sub-themes are:
• First Stories First - Planning with Country
• A Moment of Change
• Doing it Differently
• Imagining Our Future
Planning in Australia is in the spotlight more than ever. Planning system change and improvement will be crucial to address the above challenges including the housing crisis.
Whether it’s planning for resilience and climate action; addressing housing and urban change; realising the potential of digitalisation and PlanTech; or embracing planning with Country to better recognise and respect Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples – change is calling.
As planners, we are often leading change in our communities – and we have to be innovative, inventive and creative to get it done.
We are asked to consider: How might we prepare? How should we lead communities and clients through change? What projects are already showing us a glimpse of a brighter future? So that we can plan in a time of change.
