SESSION 1 CONNECTION TO COUNTRY - FIRST NATIONS PRINCIPLES INFLUENCING PLACE OUTCOMES
Place outcomes offer rich opportunities to acknowledge, respect and embed First Nations stories, histories, principles and perspectives in the strategy, policy, design, and outcomes of the places we collectively deliver. In this session we explore from a practitioner and leadership level, across Australia and Aotearoa (New Zealand) how First Nations perspectives and principles are coming to influence traditional planning and urban renewal systems to find impact and real presence on the ground level. Speakers: Frith Walker, Head of Placemaking at Eke Panuku, Auckland. Jonathan Daly, Manager, Urban Design & Heritage, City of Greater Geelong Niels Wouters, Senior Design Researcher, Paper Giant Susan Skuodas, Director, Place Management Sydney Olympic Park Authority
SESSION 2 SUSTAINABILITY AND RESILIENCE
Sustainability and Resilience are fast becoming central to the place vocabulary as we grapple with a pandemic, bush fire recovery, floods, and population growth. They remind us of our humanness, vulnerability and need for social and community connections in times of change to ensure a robust, thriving and environmentally sound future. In this session, we explore what it means to create places of humanness in times of change, how technology can be an enabler for the ‘people and place’ relationship and where to see the small-scale opportunities to embed inclusivity and diversity in large-scale developments. Speakers: Sarah Barnes, Co-Founder and Director, ESEM Projects David Martin, Manager, Public Domain Design Sydney Olympic Park Authority Frank Zeichner, CEO, IoT Alliance Australia
SESSION 3 STRUCTURING ORGANISATIONS TO DELIVER ON PLACE LEGACY
Place as an approach and direction has slotted into many different levels of leadership within state and local government organisations. Titles such as place activation, place management, place coordinator, place and economic manager and community and place manager have populated the landscape. However, Place is increasingly shifting out of the operations within organisations, to take a position at the top. In this session, we explore what it means to shift from silo operations to a ‘whole of organisation’ focus on place, what are the best-case or least effective scenarios, how do organisations create the collaborative relationships between agencies and directorates and align policies and strategies to deliver on place legacies. Speakers: David Doy, Manager Place Planning, Town of Victoria Park Vanessa Gordon, Director, Place Branch, Public Space Division, Department of Planning and Environment Malcolm Snow, CEO, City Renewal Authority Canberra, Australia; Chair, Place Leaders Asia Pacific
