DESCRIPTION
This module focuses on regeneration issues from the perspective of the local scale. Planning at the local scale is always in the news, especially where it relates to confronting urban problems through strategies and projects for urban regeneration. Local planning is a crucial element in the planning system, for both protecting the environment and stimulating development and economic activity. A vision for local areas is as vital now as it was when local plans first emerged in the 1960s. People will always need housing, schools, shops, places of work, leisure and worship: these vital components of everyday life are the focus of the Module. A significant part of the module is delivered through a one week residential field study visit.
