Prof. Wayne Caldwell, chair of the School of Environmental Design and Rural Development, recently presented at the Municipal Association of Victoria Rural and Regional Planning Conference 2015. He presented remotely via webcam as the conference was held in Australia by the MVA.
Our students and professors are featured in the July/August 2015 issue of the Ontario Planning Journal published by the Ontario Professional Planners Institute (OPPI), including on the front cover.
Prof. John Devlin and students Anissa McAlpine and David Scott all have articles published in the issue, which was the fifth annual Planning School Edition.
Students from the Rural Planning and Development program visited the Town of Goderich to meet with local officials and study the rebuilding efforts that have been on-going over the last 3 years. This field visit continues the Schools interest in contributing to and learning from these initiatives. The town has undergone major rebuilding and landscaping efforts following an important planning process that involved students in Planning, Landscape Architecture and Capacity Development and Extension.
