SCARP Planning Studio's 2024 Presentation
3:30pm - 7:00pm | 800 Robson St
After months of research, community engagement, partnerships, and planning, our Planning Studio student teams present their final project findings and formal proposals to our community partners across BC. Now, at the Planning Studio's final project presentation, community partners, faculty, students, families, and friends of SCARP come to hear these impressive findings, and discuss their proposals in a fair of all projects. What is the Planning Studio?Before entering the professional world as planners, graduate students of the professionally-accredited Master of Community and Regional Planning program tackle not simulated challenges, but real-world problems. These students partner with community, municipal, and private-sector organizations as consultants, in a joint venture to identify problems and formally propose feasible solutions. Many Planning Studio projects have gone on to transform community-wide programs, benefiting the larger BC community. Read more about the Studio, past projects, and how to get involved!Event format3:30Arrival, greetings, and networking4:00Presentations begin4:45Q&A5:00Reception, poster presentations7:00Evening adjournsThis year's presentations: (click to expand)"Advancing Sustainable Development with Salmon-Safe BC"Presented by SCARP students:Mia BojicRiva SiddiquiKathryn WuFor the consideration of our partner,Fraser Basin Council"Enforcing Tenant Relocation Rights: A Catalogue of Tools for BC Municipalities"Presented by SCARP students:Natalia HayesJacob IsaacTaryn PlaterFor the consideration of our partner,Tenant Resource & Advisory Centre“Exploring intersections: built form, policy and urban heat islands in the City of Kelowna”Presented by SCARP students:Hana AmburyStephanie GrondinKai-Hei (Ken) MauSimarjeet NagpalFor the consideration of our partner,The City of Kelowna“Bus Priority in Motion: An Implementation Toolkit for Metro Vancouver”Presented by SCARP students:Molly BarkowskyCaroline DunauxAlex HeilmannSayani MandalFor the consideration of our partner,HDR, inc.“Creating a roadmap for growth and climate change”Presented by SCARP students:heree EmmanuelMaya KorbynnAnalisa RuizJasmeen Kaur SidhuFor the consideration of our partner,A rural First Nation“Making life even better: promoting livability on Gambier Island”Presented by SCARP students:Nadine BellPengcheng (Peter) FangMelissa PaisSantiago RodriguezFor the consideration of our partner,Gambier Island Community Association"Successful car light buildings in transit-rich neighbourhoods"Presented by SCARP students:Willow CabralChristopher ChanAudrey ChoongFumika NoguchiFor the consideration of our partner,The City of New Westminster"Granville Island: Enhancing a Public Market Experience"Presented by SCARP students:Kylie ClarkReyhan CumingSara PavanRudrasen Amol SheoreyFor the consideration of our partner,The Granville Island AssociationSCARP recognises and values all our community partners,and the extraordinary things we've accomplished together.
