AIA New Jersey Members Invited to Submit Session Proposals For The 2023 NJ Planning & Redevelopment Conference

Call for Session Proposals

Submissions will be accepted through March 3, 2023.

The 2023 New Jersey Planning and Redevelopment Conference brings together bold ideas, innovative solutions, proven concepts, and best practices for creating stronger, more inclusive, and equitable places where people live, work, and play. 

 

New Jersey Future and the New Jersey Chapter of the American Planning Association are proud to present this three-day conference to be held virtually on June 21–22 and in-person at the Hyatt Regency New Brunswick on June 23. 

 

Join us by submitting a proposal after reviewing the guidelines below. 

Please note that the Conference Committee is not only committed to diversity of topics and perspectives but the diversity of presenters as well. We believe the issues of systemic racism, segregation, and our legacy of inequality in land use and redevelopment must be tackled in a direct and proactive manner and we will be creating opportunities to do just that at this conference.
