SUMMARY:People\, Policy\, Planning\, Place and Product: Lessons from a City Planner
DESCRIPTION:ANNUAL DIVERSITY\, EQUITY\, INCLUSION AND BELONGING LECTURE \nPresented by Christopher A. Watson\, M.Sc.\, Ph.D.[c] Director of Planning and Development Services\, Murphy Schiller & Wilkes LLP \nPlanning as a tool is ideally to organize the physical environment to effectuate the life course of residents\, so that they can be triangled with the resources needed to live successful life courses. Often\, whoever gets to make the decision as to how space is organize determines the outcome for those residents\, enveloped in those planned areas. To better provide the support residents need to advance themselves\, personal agency aside\, planners must be able to be the best translators of residents’ voices within planning principles that forward an agenda that is inclusive of community voice. Without this key understanding in practice\, space is disorganized\, and the evolution of society is stymied by confusion. \nThis conversation will explore these themes and will allow us as planners to have an honest conversation as to what our mandates are\, how we practice these mandates\, and how we come together to organize space around who we are planning for. Planning for people should include their voices\, and this lecture is to provoke a conversation as to how we get to this realization in our practices. \n

SUMMARY:Cultural Heritage Now: Evidence and Evaluation: Understanding What Cultural Heritage Projects Achieve"
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Dr. Paul Burtenshaw\, Senior Director of Project Impact at World Monuments Fund\n\n\nThere is an increasing need within cultural heritage to provide evidence for project impact. This need has several sources\, from the evolving requirements of sustainable and international development practice\, changes in impact philanthropy\, desire for justifying public budgets and from cultural heritage itself wishing to demonstrate its applicability to wider social agendas. This lecture will discuss these sources and how we can develop appropriate monitoring and evaluation systems and tools\, including current work at World Monuments Fund.\n\nDr Paul Burtenshaw is the Senior Director of Project Impact at World Monuments Fund. Paul completed his PhD at University College London into the performance and politics of cultural heritage as an economic asset. He was previously the Director of Projects at Sustainable Preservation Initiative and has been a freelance consultant for projects involving heritage economics\, tourism\, and how cultural heritage supports sustainable and community development.\n\n\nJoin on Zoom\n\nFor more information: chaps.rutgers.edu

SUMMARY:17th Annual Krueckeberg Doctoral Conference in Urban Studies\, Urban Planning\, and Public Policy
DESCRIPTION:The Bloustein School will present the 17th Annual Krueckeberg Doctoral Conference in Urban Studies\, Urban Planning\, and Public Policy on Friday\, March 14\, 2025. The conference is organized by doctoral students for doctoral students engaged in urban planning\, urban studies\, health\, and policy-related research across disciplines and universities in the tri-state NJ-NY-PA metropolitan region. Named after Professor Donald A. Krueckeberg\, the conference commemorates Don Krueckeberg’s long-running commitment to doctoral education by providing a one-day forum highlighting doctoral student research at the cutting edge of urban studies\, planning\, and public policy. \nConference Registration: https://forms.gle/rWAx3cMnqyTVtZ5S8 \nConference Agenda \nDoctoral students at any stage of dissertation research are invited and encouraged to present their work at the conference. First-year doctoral students are invited to participate to try out a topic\, and advanced candidates may present sections of research or a finished dissertation\, or anywhere in between. Past presentations have outlined tentative research topics\, surveyed literature\, reported interim findings\, and overviewed completed dissertations. The conference aims to encourage questions\, comments\, and discussions during each session. \nA well-known and respected scholar in the planning profession\, Professor Krueckeberg’s special interests and contributions were in the areas of planning history\, property theory\, and land use policy. His books\, Introduction to Planning History in the United States\, The American Planner: Biographies and Recollections\, and Urban Planning Analysis\, still serve as important references for scholars and professionals in planning and public policy. \nAs a major contributor to urban planning and policy studies\, the Bloustein School’s Krueckeberg Conference showcases some of the most unique and forward-thinking research in the discipline. Past conferences have included doctoral candidates in urban studies\, urban planning and public policy from Columbia University\, The New School\, the University of Pennsylvania\, and more.

SUMMARY:Operationalizing Equity: Keynote of Kruekeberg Doctoral Conference
DESCRIPTION:Reference to “equity” in planning is rather ubiquitous\, for good reason. However\, moving conceptual terms from theory to practice often belies just intentions in even the best plans and processes of implementation of urban development. In this lecture\, Dr. Carolini will discuss the challenges and opportunities of moving beyond equity as a norm and consider its transition in both scholarship and practice–however complicated. While planners have long leaned on participatory decision-making strategies to ensure procedural equities and advance justice in urban planning and development\, here she will draw attention to examples of how planners can also foreground epistemic and distributive equities at the local level. To this end\, she will discuss project-level considerations of the quality of learning and knowledge production and the criticality of spatialized accounts of fairness in making legible the distribution of a project or program’s material benefits. She will leverage her research from across the Americas and Africa to argue that operationalizing equity can be more straightforward than it sounds. However\, this requires a reframing of ex-ante and ex-post evaluative frameworks to incorporate procedural\, distributive\, and epistemic equities in projects and programs that can move us closer toward that which ought to be in cities. \nGabriella Carolini is an associate professor of urban planning and international development in the Department of Urban Studies and Planning (DUSP) at MIT\, where she leads the City Infrastructure Equity Lab (CIEL). Her research and teaching are centered on providing a grounded critical analysis of how the governance of infrastructure development—including its financial architecture\, implementation practices\, and evaluation—shapes the distributional fairness of infrastructure benefits\, particularly for and with marginalized communities. \nConference Registration: https://forms.gle/rWAx3cMnqyTVtZ5S8 \n
