The 2016 theme is Planning for Community Self Determination and Racial Justice. The Dale Prize asks policy makers, developers, and practitioners to reflect on their historic contributions to racially segregated and unequal communities through urban renewal, redevelopment and exclusionary zoning practices. How have planners contributed to racial and spatial inequality? How can we use our collective influence and expertise to alter the course of separate-and-unequal treatment of racialized communities?
