This Regional Planning Studio is designed for graduate students interested in understanding regional planning, development and analysis. The course provides a theoretical and practical framework to address challenges in regional planning, including territorial development, land use and preservation, transportation networks, economic development, and environmental sustainability. It emphasizes the dynamics of centralization, decentralization, and recentralization processes in urban and regional contexts, along with the polycentric aspects of regions. Throughout the course, students will explore the history, institutional practices, limitations and current challenges of regional planning. There will also be a strong focus on governance issues related to regional planning. Participants will engage in class activities, case studies, and group discussions to develop strategic solutions that balance growth with sustainability in diverse regional contexts.
