Planning Digest

The AACIP Planning Journal is a professional publication featuring articles that provide insight into contemporary planning from a variety of perspectives. Its objective is to provide a forum for people in the profession to share their experience and expertise. This allows AACIP members, decision makers, government officials and others involved in planning to stay informed of the current and innovative planning and development practices across Alberta, the Northwest Territories, Nunavut and abroad.

Three full-colour print issues are published annually: Winter, Summer, and Conference (fall). The AACIP Planning Journal, created in 2009, represents an evolution from AACIP’s previous publication, the Planning Digest, which was produced electronically until 2007.
