The way that places are planned, designed, maintained and regenerated can help or hinder work to tackle health inequalities, climate change, and economic resilience. The TCPA works, therefore, on a wide range of topics: find out more about the work we do by exploring the themes below.
Climate Change
Reducing carbon emissions and building resilience to the impacts of climate change must be a top priority for planning across the UK.
Community Participation and Social Justice
In a fair and democratic society, communities should be able to participate in decision-making, to give them control over their lives and ensure good outcomes for all.
Healthy Place-making
Homes and neighbourhoods have a profound impact on people’s health and wellbeing so it is vital that we plan places that support good health for everyone.
New Towns
The Garden City model provides a practical approach to delivering healthy, inclusive and climate resilient places today.
Parks and Green Infrastructure
Green infrastructure provides many benefits for the environment, health and well-being and is an essential component of any neighbourhood.
