IHBC Director Seán O’Reilly has been invited to serve as a judge on the panel for the 2014 Placemaking Awards, while planners now have until 17 December to enter awards that ‘recognise the projects, plans and people that are making places better’.
The Award organisers write:
The Placemaking Awards recognise and publicise projects, plans, people and organisations that are making places better. Open to individuals and organizations in planning, regeneration, economic development, urban design, sustainable development and community development.
The aim of the Placemaking Awards is to be as inclusive as possible for the Built Environment, to showcase not just projects that have come to fruition but also ideas, plans and the people and consultacies behind the process of planning and to highlight all aspects of the Built Environment including the best practice that each and every planner has at the core of their work.
