12 - 15 April 2016, Dunedin | 25 CPD Points
NZPI Otago Branch invites you to join us in Dunedin for NZPI’s Annual Conference - a four day showcase of the regions prosperity, quality of life and sustainable development accomplishments.
The conference theme “Over the Rainbow” seeks to address critical issues for New Zealand’s move towards environmental sustainability and 25 years since the implementation of the RMA.
Local and international speakers will address opportunities and vision required by planners capable of taking a strategic, policy-oriented view of social and environmental issues facing New Zealand at a regional level.
Issues of Significance Include:
As our society becomes increasingly complex, the need for planners and professionals has become ever greater. Planners consider issues from a range of scientific and social perspectives and must also take into account the particular values of different groups within the community.
