SHIFT Annual Planning Conference
Each year the our School of Planning, together with government and community partners, hosts an annual conference during the winter semester. The purpose of the conference is to bring together planning students and faculty, planning professionals, community groups, policymakers, and interested citizens to discuss and debate current topics in planning and community design.
Conference themes are chosen for their immediate relevance to the wider community. An effort is made to link these themes with related activities occurring elsewhere in Halifax and across the province.
The conference is primarily organized by students.
Hosted along with the Licensed Professional Planners Association of Nova Scotia (LPPANS), Shift 2024: Growing Pains, will examine how we can better plan for the opportunities and challenges posed by rapid urban growth.
