Abstract

Planning is a crucial element for any development initiative. Planning entails choice making in pursuit of stated goals e.g. improving living conditions for individuals and societies. Planning initiatives are employed within social systems that are governed by institution, and planning intervenes with and may reconfigure these institutions resulting in social change. This paper discusses how urban sustainability can be achieved through strategic action in urban development by analysing the planning process of Khulna city, Bangladesh. This paper reviews different scholarly articles to draw a conceptual framework for identifying the interface of strategic planning, components of strategic action planning and urban sustainability. Based on this conceptual framework this paper identifies the scope of achieving urban sustainability through analysing the current planning practice of Khulna city, Bangladesh. This paper identifies that though the Khulna city plan adopted the approach of strategic planning but it failed to comply with its theoretical notion to achieve the issues related to urban sustainability. Analysis reveals that in terms of social attribute that recognizes the interest of different group of people the existing planning packages is not sustainable. Similar phenomenon have been observed in terms of recognition of gender and marginalized people in planning, equitable provision of income and employment generation, people’s’ participation in planning and policies for ensuring equitable access to infrastructure services. Therefore the existing planning package of Khulna city failed to achieve the issues of urban sustainability through its adapted strategic planning approach.

Conclusions

Strategic planning, by its principle is collaborative and flexible to address diversity of problem. But evaluating the case of Khulna city plan it is apparent that there is no reflection of strategic planning though namely the plan is a strategic plan. By analyzing this plan it is revealed that the age old master plan approach is still in practice. There is no effective attempt to introduce more socially just planning approach. Observation of Khulna city plan reveals that the planning process is still maintaining a low profile and creating the option of malpractices. It has failed to draw sufficient attention of the actors involved and the citizenry in general to uphold its position as a necessary tool for urban development. Moreover the plan is far away from urban sustainability. It should be revised and attempt should be made to incorporate the issues of coordination, equity, economical viability, environmental efficiency and participation. Ultimately, it is not only necessary that planning should respect the prevailing social, environmental, economical and political situation, but the same conditions must need to be congenial and compatible enough to nurture and promote planning as a discipline aimed at lasting social welfare.
