Planning for Good Health
The London Young Planners’ Committee are excited to be hosting the Young Planners’ Conference 2025 in London.
Throughout the two-day conference, delegates will have the opportunity to hear from a wide range of expert speakers from across the public and private sectors, participate in interactive breakout sessions, exchange ideas and network with peers from across the built environment industry.
We live in a time where communities are becoming more diverse, mental and physical health needs are changing, and the housing crisis wages on. Young planners are the profession’s future, and we want to prepare them better to deal with these challenges and improve their understanding of how the planning industry can lend itself as a solution as we work towards better health.
The conference seeks to explore the theme of health through an engaging programme of speaker panels, breakout sessions and study tours focussed on the relationship between planning, physical and mental health, inequality, place-making and policy. The standard of health varies widely across the UK and it is well
understood that socio-economic inequalities can contribute towards geographic health inequality, which we see in many of our cities today.
