Collective Conversations: Planning and Designing for Change

About
Join us for the second Collective Conversations of 2025, hosted by the Urban Collective!!
From 4 leading voices in the fields of urban planning and urban design, hear about the most topical issues of urban planning and urban design in Victoria today:
Within the backdrop of significant changes and reforms made to our planning system and design codes, including the updated ResCode Clause 55, the Activity Centres Program, and SRL East Precinct Planning, intense discourse has arisen within both professional practice and academic circles regarding whether these changes maintain the right balance between neighbourhood amenity, good design, equity, sustainability, public participation and housing provision.
We will be hosting a Q&A panel session in the first half of the event with our 4 guest panellists, followed by a social mixer for you to chat to our guests and chill with fellow students. Free food and drink will be provided😊
