Evaluation for Participation and Sustainability in Planning

By Johan Woltjer, Ernest Alexander, Abdul Khakee, et al.

Book Overview

Planning evaluation is required to establish the success of planning interventions - both of physical developments and new approaches. Yet this should not be a task undertaken purely by professionals without participation by those affected by the process and outcomes of the projects. This book provides case studies and advice on how to balance conservation with economic growth, the cost effectiveness of plans alongside the effects upon the community, and the importance of engaging with all stakeholders involved in a project.
