Participatory Planning is an approach that involves stakeholders, including community members, in the decision-making process of urban development and planning. This method ensures that the voices of those affected by planning decisions are heard, fostering a sense of ownership and responsibility among participants. By engaging diverse groups, such as local residents and interest organizations, Participatory Planning aims to create more equitable and sustainable outcomes. It encourages collaboration and transparency, ultimately leading to better-designed spaces that reflect the needs and desires of the community, enhancing social cohesion and trust in public institutions.
