Tomorrow's Planners project

The recognition of all cultures, their inclusion in the mainstream and positive management of diversity are key drivers for the UK in the new century, to ensure our society continues to evolve to the benefit of all. The built environment is a common resource and must satisfy the needs and aspirations of society through the planning process.

Tomorrow's Planners will improve multi-cultural representation in planning through:

the use of positive action training programmes (section 37 and 38 RRA 1976 Amendment 2000) which provide access opportunities for people from black and minority ethnic groups in professions where they are under represented.
Raising awareness of the planning process and the role individuals can play in that process to influence the evolution of the built environment.
Develop and disseminate a model of good practice of working in sector wide occupations.

PATH National is working with a number of public sector employers to deliver traineeship programmes. Click here to find out more.
