Postponement of the Dortmund Conference on Spatial and Planning Research to September 2022
Postponement of the Dortmund Conference on Spatial and Planning Research to September 2022
Due to the once again increasing number of Covid-19 cases, the "Dortmund Conference on Spatial and Planning Research" in February cannot take place as a face-to-face event as planned.
As the event team would like to hold the conference in presence and not online, DOKORP 2022 will be postponed to (probably) September. The exact date and further details will be communicated as soon as possible!
Should the postponement of the conference lead to the withdrawal of accepted papers, we may reopen the call for papers. Please keep an eye on the Dortmund Conference homepage!
We may re-iopen the call for papers if the postponement of the conference results in accepted papers being withdrawn. Please pay attention to the latest information on the conference website!

"If possible, please turn around!"
Research and Planning for the Sustainability Turn
The Dortmund Conference on Spatial and Planning Research is jointly organized by the Department of Spatial Planning at TU Dortmund University, the Academy for Territorial Development in the Leibniz Association, Hanover (ARL) and the Research Institute for Regional and Urban Development (ILS), Dortmund.
Spatial planning and development, despite guiding principles to the contrary, contribute locally and globally to social processes that exceed the planet's carrying capacity and distribute burdens and opportunities unequally. "If possible, please turn around!" therefore is not the suggestion of your navigation system after a missed turn, but the request to consistently question this direction as well as to point out possibilities that necessarily go beyond marginal directional corrections. The Dortmund Conference on Spatial and Planning Research 2022 would like to contribute to the Sustainability Turn and invites you to present your contribution to this process.
DOKORP 2022 includes eight tracks. You can submit a presentation or propose your own session by July 15, 2021. You can also initiate a spatial and planning science roundtable. DOKORP 2022 is also open for other topics of spatial and planning research.
