Call for Papers: Carolina Planning

Carolina Planning – the oldest student-run planning publication in the country – seeks to bridge the gap between urban planning professionals and academics, with the goal of providing original articles, case studies, and book reviews on a wide range of topics relevant to today’s planning challenges. Carolina Planning is associated with the Department of City and Regional Planning at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and is distributed widely throughout North Carolina and nationally.

We are now seeking submissions for the 2013 issue:
“Planning for Equity.” The current economic recession
has raised concerns about widening disparities in
opportunity and wealth.
• What role can planners and policy-makers play in
bridging these disparities?
• How can planners and policy-makers increase access
to opportunity for individuals and households, reduce
socioeconomic inequalities, and create a physically
and socially just society?
• What are some innovative planning and policy
practices that demonstrate equitable outcomes?

Topics may include, but are not limited to: defining
equity; responsible redevelopment; equitable disaster
planning; increasing access to food sources, housing
and transportation; equity in the built environment;
neighborhood stabilization; fair lending practices;
environmental equity; and how planners apply the equity
principal from the APA’s Code of Ethics into their daily
practice.

Submission Details:
• Interested contributors should contact the Carolina
Planning editors by email prior to the submission
deadline to discuss article topics and any other
questions. You may also fill out the form online:

graphs, and images should be included in the page
count. Only original work is published.
• Citations should follow the author-date system in the

•     Carolina Planning editors edit articles accepted for
publication, subject to the author’s approval, for both
space and content. Authors requesting peer review
should notify editors in advance.

from the United States; however, internationally focused
submissions are encouraged.
