Here's how you can foster equity and inclusivity with innovative planning strategies.

Protect the Gifts of Community. Nature, neighbours, no noise pollution. Gather people for the memories and stories of where you live. There are boundless opportunities to help locals in need. Even as one small deed.

In the Netherlands we have the participation elite. White male baby boomers who have all the time to go to all participatory meetings in a city. People who have a job don't come there because they have other stuff to do like work etc. If you do not make diversity a priority the self selection will take place and without and the participation elite will show up and make all the decisions. So just make a neighbourhood meeting and it will all work out is not how it works.

People are not interested in your ego. It is about tribal needs to bond. If does not seem so, plant a seed. And water. Inspire by example. Be the example by fluidity in engagement. People will notice the value of this and you will shine uniqueness without trying to force any stuff. Listen. Listen. Listen, and engage without critics. People love to be understood and attended.

Design for intuition and as a wise storyteller. Do not blown the respect a human being deserves: sometimes one is tired, or overloaded, bored. So, mind each speck of ideas. Make it speak for itself, and let the work bloom without merit. Because the work has been enough for you to feel enough to move on.

Let reality smile back, show up before the muse changes you. That way, luck is more likely for the connected, prepared mind. Even if prepared means naive and amateur eyes.

Design for social inclusion typically requires a suite of approaches of which Inclusionary Zoning is only one. In the context of urban renewal:- - how can the land ownerships of the State, Local jurisdictions and nfp's be more effectively leveraged for social impact including Affordable Housing? 2. Are their zoning opportunities previously prohibiting housing & where employment precincts are reimaged for contemporary knowledge based enterprises, to develop Affordable Key Worker housing and Workplaces as a % of GFA that must be retained in single title ownerships & priced at levels aligned to incomes of workers and businesses who need to live & work here. 3. Are their ways to add value to the land to offset the revenue & valuation impact

Very informative pointers above! I propose incorporating Digitally Inclusive Cities .This is a crucial aspect in our rapidly evolving world, particularly in the realm of technology. To achieve this, we should seamlessly integrate digital infrastructure into the urban fabric, ensuring equitable access for all residents.Example in public parks ,streets and markets.
