Housing shortages, congestion, climate risks, and unequal access to services force cities to make difficult choices about land. Urban Planning scholarships can fund study of zoning, transport, housing, regeneration, infrastructure, or community development.

Winners may approach these issues through planning offices, neighbourhood projects, geographic analysis, policy research, or public consultation. Their accounts can guide you in presenting evidence about a place, recognising competing priorities, and linking your training to more workable urban decisions.
