This article discusses the way in which the Department of Town and Regional Planning at
the University of Pretoria is using three sets of projects in which it has participated over the
past twelve years in revising its planning curricula. These three projects, namely improving
intergovernmental development planning; enhancing community-based planning, and
presenting and participating in capacity-building and certificated short courses, are
discussed, in conjunction with what faculty experienced and observed, and what lessons
were learnt with regard to the Department’s planning curricula. This is followed by a
discussion of the implications of the experiences and lessons learnt in the three projects for
planning education on a more generic level.
Hierdie artikel bespreek die wyse waarop die Stads- en Streekbeplanningsdepartement
aan die Universiteit van Pretoria drie stelle projekte waarin die Departement gedurende
die laaste twaalf jare betrokke was, gebruik om sy beplanningskurrikulums te hersien. Die
drie projekte, naamlik die verbetering van interregeringsontwikkelingsbeplanning; die
versterking van gemeenskapsgebaseerde beplanning, en die aanbied en deelname in
kapasiteitsbou en gesertifiseerde kortkursusse, word bespreek tesame met dit wat die lede
van die Departement ervaar en gemerk het, en die lesse wat geleer is ten opsigte van
die Departement se beplanningskurrikulums. Dit word gevolg deur ’n bespreking van die
implikasies van die ervarings en die lesse geleer in die drie projekte vir beplanningsopleiding
op ’n meer generiese vlak.
