A new role for young planners in the Netherlands: Still a Planner's Paradise?

Research output: Chapter in Book/Conference proceedings/Edited volume › Chapter › Scientific › peer-review

Abstract

This chapter addresses the question: How do the encounters of young planners with 'the real world' influence their perspectives on planing practice and the planning profession? It is based on research into the way in which planning students and young planning professionals perceive this change.The young planners indicated that communication is the most important aspect of their work. This is different from educational programs in which the making of plans and policies is important. Inclusive values are part of their jobs and they are able to express these values through their work. They feel that they contribute, in their own modest way, to a better world.
