PLPR 2027 – 21st Annual Planning, Law, and Property Rights Conference
**PLPR 2027 – 21st Annual Planning, Law, and Property Rights Conference** is a professional and academic conference held in Ås, Norway, from May 10–14, 2027, bringing together researchers and practitioners across mixed levels. Participants engage with current scholarship and practice in planning law, property rights frameworks, and related policy issues through presentations, panel discussions, and networking. The conference emphasizes interdisciplinary dialogue between legal, planning, and property rights expertise.
Why it matters
This conference brings together work at the intersection of planning, law, and property rights—areas that are highly relevant for students, researchers, and practitioners interested in governance, land use, regulation, and legal institutions.
For a delegate, attending can be a valuable way to engage with interdisciplinary discussions in person, follow current conversations in the field, and connect academic and professional perspectives across related subject areas.
How to prepare
To prepare well, start by reviewing your own interests within the broad themes of planning, law, and property rights. It can help to identify a few core issues—such as land use regulation, property governance, or legal frameworks for development—and refresh your understanding of the main debates and terminology in those areas.
Because the conference format is in person and specific committees or tracks are not listed, delegates should also prepare a flexible plan: read the event information carefully, note the dates, and think about the questions you would want to ask speakers or fellow attendees. Bringing a concise introduction to your academic or professional interests can also make networking easier.
