This course runs from 9:00am - 12:30pm over two days: Wednesday 2 September and Thursday 3 September.

This course is designed for NSW professionals. It focuses on the role that planning can play in achieving sustainable heritage outcomes and provides an overview of current issues and attitudes to heritage, including best practice standards and guidelines. Heritage conservation is increasingly recognised as contributing to broader environmental sustainability. However, it is often considered to conflict with development and other urban planning objectives. While heritage may never be the poster child of planning, it is nevertheless widely valued by communities for its ability to enhance the character and liveability of neighbourhoods, towns, and cities. In this course, you will learn about heritage significance, contributory values, and how to balance heritage and development to achieve sustainable planning. We will provide practical examples and insights
