Regional Planning in Wisconsin: New contexts and new strategies

Bill Schaefer, Planning Manager, Greater Madison MPO

Panel moderated by:

Carey McAndrews, Associate Professor, UW-Madison Department of Planning and Landscape Architecture

Please join us for a discussion with leaders of regional planning in the State of Wisconsin. In the last 12 months, cities and regions across Wisconsin have experienced great challenges, which created new contexts for regional planning. Specifically, improving public health, enhancing social justice, combating climate change, and engaging civic discourse all require regional-level dialogue and coordination. As a result, regional planning agencies across the State have adopted innovative strategies to address these challenges.

This lecture is free to attend and does not require any registration.
