JPG1812Y: Planning for Change: Community Development in Practice

This is a full-year service-learning course that facilitates practical experience in community-engaged planning. Service-learning is a reciprocal work placement between students and community partners. Students are placed with a public or non-profit sector organization for one day per week, on average, from early October to late March to work in community development and planning. Placement organizations practice a range of planning-related work, including housing, transportation, social planning, and environmental initiatives. We meet as a class in a seminar format to support the students' work, reflect on theory and practice, and to learn from one another’s experiences. This placement can fulfil Master of Sciece in Planning students' internship requirement.
