Regeneration is a holistic process which aims to reverse the economic, social and physical decline of places where market forces alone will not suffice.
The RTPI needs your help!
As part of the RTPI’s forthcoming Centenary, we are preparing a series of topic papers, including ‘Planning for Economic Growth’. This particular paper will consist of case studies, best practice, informed dialogue and forward thinking for the profession. We are therefore looking for member support, in providing case studies for inclusion at this stage.
If you have an example of where a planning professional has made a difference to economic growth, through conventional or unconventional means, we would like to hear from you. The RTPI sees planning as central in unlocking growth and facilitating development; this is a unique opportunity to showcase our successes across all our regions and, of course, internationally.
Please respond to our Policy Officer with your contributions, no matter how small. We also ask members to confirm whether or not they would be happy for the RTPI to make contact to discuss contributions, if necessary.

Our viewpoint
We believe that the spatial planning system should be placed at the heart of regeneration. The planning process provides the opportunity to enhance the role and capacity of communities as well as balancing community, business, environmental and individual needs. Effective regeneration requires active and meaningful long-term community engagement and involvement, as well as changes to the physical environment. Planners are skilled in both these areas.
