Welcome to the Swedish Society for Town and Country Planning!

Swedish planning in the 21st century faces great challenges. How are we to meet increasing internationalization, with keener regional competition? What stand should we take on the privatization of public services? How should sustainable development be handled in practice?

What do these challenges mean to planners? With the growth of the knowledge society, the expectations on the profession are changing. In the future, planners will need a command of new methods and processes, with an increasing emphasis on strategic thinking. The planner's role as coordinator and negotiator will become increasingly important.
