We Are The World International Division

Planning is for people who come from all walks of life and so do we. At the International Division, we're not all the same, and that is our greatest strength. We welcome the unique contributions that you can bring: your education, opinions, culture, ethnicity, languages, and beliefs. We do not just respect diversity -we celebrate it and thrive on it for a more peaceful,  sustainable, and equitable world.

What We Do

Founded in 2004, the Division is about connecting American planners to the world and bringing the world closer together. We share knowledge. But, you see, the world is big. We have more questions than answers. So we connect, learn, and collaborate. Bring changes for better lives - one project and one neighborhood at a time. 

Read Mission Statement

Who We Are

We are urban planners, including American planners interested in planning practice in other countries and planners living and working outside the U.S. We specialize in many aspects of planning: land use, environment, design, transportation. At the core, we are a group of people helping create great communities for all.
