Profile
This master track delves deeper into how urban planning and policies respond to urban dynamics and how different stakeholders are engaged in the co-creation of a commonly envisioned urban development.
The Strategic Urban Planning and Policies: Managing Socio-Spatial Dynamics for Sustainable Cities programme is a master track within the MSc in Urban Management and Development, linking theory and practice by working with concepts and tools of urban planning, policies, governance, spatial justice, gender, and sustainability. The track addresses the role of urban planning in rapid urbanisation, informal settlements, social deprivation, growing inequalities, economic decline, and changing climatic circumstances. Through the lens of urban justice, you will analyse how cities function and how strategic planning and policies contribute to steering urban development processes. Next to learning how to engage with different stakeholders and applying urban planning and policy tools, you will also reflect on the implications of different planning approaches on cities’ socio-spatial dynamics. Finally, you will study how the spatial distribution of services, infrastructure, opportunities, and social practices in space and power relations in decision-making impact the city.
