Farr Associates, in partnership with PlaceMatters and the APA Technology Division, has put together a convenient and affordable series of online seminars to teach planners about the principles and practices of Sustainable Urbanism. Implementing sustainable communities will require the participation of the next several generations of development and planning professionals. New tools and techniques can greatly assist in the adoption of Sustainable Urbanism as a dominant pattern of human settlement over the course of the next few decades.
