Preparing Planners for a Globalizing World

The Planning School at the University of Guelph

Farokh Afshar

School of Rural Planning and Development at the University of Guelph

Globalization poses new challenges for planning education. For this, a global, one-world approach to planning education is proposed using mutual learning and the comparative method. This is relevant for students with both domestic and international careers. A review of practitioners’ and educators’ views reveals broad support. However, small schools in particular have difficulty adopting this approach. The planning school at the University of Guelph is a work in progress about how such schools can do so. It has globalized despite small size and resource cutbacks. Challenges remain. Fitting adequate content into a two-year program is a struggle. North-south inequities undermine mutual learning. The global relevance of the approach is untested.
