The Danish Town Planning Institute

The Danish Town Planning Institute is an independent, self-governing foundation working to improve the quality of cities and landscapes. We believe that holistic planning leads to better cities, stronger communities, and enhanced quality of life.

We bring together actors across disciplines and institutions through courses and conferences, networks, development projects, as well as debate and knowledge sharing.

Projects

Transition to Sustainable Urban Communities

The project Transition to Sustainable Urban Communities explores how spatial planning can contribute to reducing CO₂ emissions and enhancing urban quality in our cities.

Safe Cities and Neighborhoods

Safety-promoting urban planning can help create a feeling of safety and reduce crime.

Contact point European Urban Initiative

The Danish Town Planning Institute has been designated as the contact point for the European Urban Initiative. In short, we help you access the knowledge you need and take advantage of the opportunities available through the European Urban Initiative.

Revitalising town centres for everyday life, community and nature

The project explores how buildings and urban spaces can be reimagined and reused to create vibrancy and community in Danish town centers. The goal is to inspire new strategies through international examples.
