1 December 2011 : There is only one month left to the AESOP Silver Jubilee Year!

In 2012, the Association of European Schools of Planning will be 25 years old.
We wish to use this opportunity to strengthen the cooperation between European and worldwide planning organisations. We wish to promote planning as a full-fledged discipline of knowledge, research, education and practice. We also wish to discuss the current situation in planning and delineate future steps to be taken.
In 2012, we will be honoured to invite our friends and partners to numerous meetings and events connected to our Silver Jubilee.
We are also proud to be able to launch together with the International Federation for Housing and Planning the LECTURE SERIES, designed as a highlight of both the Silver Jubilee of AESOP (2012) and the Centenary of IFHP (2013).
Please consult our events AGENDA (until the new academic year 2012/2013).
