Appreciative planning
Appreciative planning is, as defined by Ameyaw (2000), an "approach to urban planning in a multicultural context. Appreciative planning is a model based on mutual respect, trust, and care-based action. It is a two-way learning and problem-solving approach to planning. Appreciative planning is a multi-faceted process that unites rational and nonrational processes of social interaction and social learning to enable citizens and professionals to share the work of problem solving and decision-making for the benefit of their communities. By so doing, it enables planners to celebrate the valuable assets multicultural groups bring to city life and planning deliberations."[1]
The appreciative concept can also be understood as a practical approach to confront "the real conflicts, issues, dissent, and trade-offs in city planning."[2] The purpose is to "create contexts in which planners and multicultural groups can continuously learn and experiment, think systematically, engage in meaningful dialogue, and create visions that energize action and inclusion in city planning."[3] Appreciative planning thus fosters a "multicultural sensibility for planning", which includes considering how cultures, "which prescribe members’ relations with the community, orient their actions, and, among other things, suggest how they might use formal planning processes."[4].
