Better Plans = Better Places


Event Recording

In the environment of economic crisis generated by the pandemic there have been calls to abandon the strategic plans for Sydney. Asking the question, “How should plans for places react to changing circumstances?” leads to the second question – “What does a good strategic plan look like?” The current Henry Halloran Trust’s Practitioner-in-Residence - Halvard Dalheim addresses this second question in this session.  As part of his residency, Halvard is preparing a comprehensive guide to Strategic Planning.
