Abstract

Seeking to chart future trends, this chapter examines historical aspects in the discipline’s development, practitioners’ viewpoints, opinions from planning educators, and contributions from this forward looking Part of the book to develop and substantiate a vision of future planning curricula and educational approaches. While results from a survey of leading planning educators broadly reconfirm stalwart values of the planning field (“the pillars of planning”), some suggestions were posited in regards to more explicit integration of education for post-sustainability, resilience, and ecosystems concepts. Furthermore, interdisciplinary, diversity, pluralism, and the fields’ long-standing experience of participatory working should be turned into a virtue to bolsters the field’s academic standing given trajectories that promote university-community engagement, partnership and collaborative working with industry, government and society.
