A cultural approach to planning and policy.

“Cultural Planning is not the ‘planning of culture’, but a culturally sensitive, approach to planning and policy. While cultural policies have a sectoral focus (e.g. the arts) Cultural Planning has a broader definition of culture, includes sport, adopts Raymond Willians definition of culture as a way of life, and has a broader, developmental remit.” (Ghilardi, 2006)
