LOC Special Session: Saudi transformation through National, Regional and Local Planning - Exploring the emerging new planning system and its aspirations

Session Information

Saudi Arabia has embraced a new vast program of spatial planning reforms, led by the Ministry of Municipalities and Housing, aiming to promote nationally coordinated but regionally centered balanced and ambitious development that aligns with Vision 2030 and promotes sustainable, inclusive growth following the principles of the SDGs. 

A complementary session led my MOMAH and UN team will take place on another day

This session will showcases how Saudi Arabia is progressing in integrating National Spatial Policies through the preparation of a new program of regional and local plans developed locally under the leadership of newly formed development authorities and through the coordination of DASC (Development Authorities Support Center). The speakers will highlight the challenges of a fast-paced program and the steep learning curve but also how the planning process is putting the spotlight on integrated spatial development, sustainability, environmental responsibility and more.
