Progressive Planning Practice : Transforming Communities of Color

Taylor & Francis Ltd

This book provides justification, a framework and examples for an emergent alternative approach to planning and community development. Planning, design and community development have often been practiced in a monocultural way, as if all communities are the same, meaning that communities of color and low-income communities are often overlooked or ignored, if not outright harmed. This book highlights a new approach for transformative community development, where worldviews are rooted in the culture of communities of color and everyday people can find expression in decisions about a community\u2019s future. This transformative approach gives voice to people on the margins, unapologetically embraces issues of social justice and seeks to increase the overall health and well-being of the community.\n\nProgressive Planning Practice\nTransforming Communities of Color\nFree UK delivery on this item.\n\nThis brand new item is available with free UK delivery using Royal Mail tracked services.\n;
