APPI Webinar -Bringing Back the Love: The Emotional Connection of Growth and Change

November 30,  12:00 - 1:00 PM via GoTo Webinar

How does love factor into community planning? How does it factor into your practice? Do they have an intersection? With Dr. Teresa Goldstein.
 
Despite massive declines in established area population, school closures, and housing pressures; the reality that welcoming new growth into existing established neighbourhoods is wildly contentious and often considered at the expense of community ‘character’ and in opposition with stability. How to bring back the love is an exploration of the emotional connection of growth and change through  local area planning in Calgary, Alberta.  This session will explore the complexities of community planning and the significant role of human emotion in the process.

Dr. Teresa Goldstein RPP, MCIP is a recognized leader in urban planning and housing. Based in Calgary, Alberta, Teresa is hailed as an authority in community development, with a diverse background spanning government and private sectors. Teresa has led significant redevelopments throughout Alberta including the community of Currie, Calgary and the Village of Griesbach in Edmonton.
