POS NOVUS - Zoning: learning from abroad - South Africa
Date:4 February 2021 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm
Zonal planning systems have become a recurring theme in discussions about radical planning reform in England. But not all zoning systems are the same. This series of free events takes a deep dive into different zoning systems across the world. The format for each event will be the same - one guest talking about the country they work in and its zonal planning system. It will be followed with a focused discussion around those key questions (and other questions the audience may have). These discussions will be written up to blog posts - setting out how elements of the zoning system from that country could be translated into the English system.
