what we stand for

Based on the understanding of the built environment as a cultivated landscape, Spatial Planning and Strategy is a section within the Department of Urbanism of the Faculty of Architecture and the Built Environment at Delft University of Technology. Strongly anchored on the Dutch tradition of city-making, we bridge the gap between spatial design, planning, and management. We seek forward-thinking approaches able to deal with the great societal challenges of our time and are concerned with knowledge about the formulation, implementation, and evaluation of strategic and urban planning tools – visions, strategies, plans, and programmes.
