Thinking Cities: Think about the strategic, economic and cultural significance of each Destination, their best uses and the benefits they can provide. Funding Cities: Concentrate on innovative funding and finance ideas to secure financial certainty. Building Cities: Address not only design, but also how we integrate different uses with infrastructure, what is the best use or function for the land, and how we can use transparent processes to achieve diverse outcomes and smart delivery. Living Cities: Create great places, great spaces and great opportunities in transformed Destinations that are resilient, happy and prosperous

Living our Values A Culture of Excellence

For UrbanGrowth NSW, investing in research and learning opportunities is a means to an end rather than an end in itself. We are focused on delivering world class places and spaces. Our urban transformation projects are complex and challenging – and we don’t pretend to have all the answers… So we want to work with the best and brightest minds to help us innovate, imagine and deliver great places and great spaces for Sydney and for New South Wales. Establishing unique multi-disciplinary partnerships with educational institutions (at all stages of learning), industry, and other agencies will strengthen our organisational culture of excellence that underpins all aspects of our project delivery.
Communities of Practice Meeting
UrbanGrowth NSW Our commitment to the People of NSW

Many of UrbanGrowth NSW’s projects are located within metropolitan Sydney. However UrbanGrowth NSW also has a strong regional focus. We are working in a joint venture with The GPT Group to realise a plan to reinvigorate Newcastle’s historic East End. Regional Planning Documents: Draft Plan for Growing Hunter City, Department of Planning and Environment, November 2015 UrbanGrowth has a strong existing relationship with the University of Newcastle and is looking to develop links with other NSW universities in regional centres. Building on previous research into social liveability indicators and exploring potential preventative health opportunities through planning are areas of interest.

Community
Practice
“Communities of Practice are groups of people who share a concern or a passion for something they do and learn how to do it better as they interact regularly” (Wenger, 2006).
• Problem solving • Research and learning focus • Transfer of Knowledge – information sharing • Identifying knowledge gaps • Leveraging existing research/information • Coordination and synergy • Discussing project developments • Documentation of project outcomes • Site tours – experiential learning
Communities of Practice
Presentation name 22
City Transformation Lifecycle: We take a ‘whole of life’ approach to urban transformation in terms of communities we create Thinking Cities: Strategic significance of the site, economical and cultural context, potential land uses and beneficiaries. Ideas, ambitions, aspirations and needs to define what we want a place to be. Funding Cities: Considers innovative economic and financial models to finance the aspirations established in Thinking Cities. Building Cities: The highest and best integrated land use and transport planning to benefit the people who live, visit and work in these places. Living Cities: focuses on the creation of great places and opportunities, and is fundamental to producing cities that are resilient, happy and prosperous.
How will the Communities of Practice work?
23
Four Communities of Practice established: Thinking Cities, Funding Cities, Building Cities & Living Cities
Representatives from each university partner and UrbanGrowth NSW Chair (selected annually from university partners) Deputy Chair (UrbanGrowth NSW) Quarterly face-to-face meetings (minimum 1/2 day) Meeting locations will rotate through all university partners Regular reporting from COP to University Roundtable (outcomes, attendance) Coordination of all COP – Collaborative Learning Team in consultation with Chair UrbanGrowth NSW is the contact for any media queries associated with the COP

Communities of Practice A Game-Changer
24
CoP is not a ‘business as usual’ research model
Deliberately disruptive – dynamic cross-disciplinary engagement: Game-changer
Rethinking systems to enable innovation and encourage creativity and ideas generation CoP as innovation incubators
and acceleration catalysts (pilots, proof of concept)
Credible and high profile thought-leadership-shaping discourse on urban transformation
Design thinking approach to system and/or policy redesign: Real empathy, Radical collaboration, Rapid prototyping
The CoP as an enabler for partners to: Think Big, Start small, move fast
Communities of Practice Meeting
Communities of Practice Specific focus on three University Framework Elements
25
Research opportunities: “Fast” : timeframe up to one year (pilot programs; proof of concept; short research pieces) “Slow” : timeframe of between one-three years (Masters, PhD, early career research) “Staged” : research pieces with components that can be delivered over several years (longitudinal studies; epidemiological research)
Research opportunities can be generated by UrbanGrowth NSW or university partners Application of agreed criteria to prioritise research focus from the COP Demonstrate cross-institutional collaboration and direct involvement from UrbanGrowth NSW Depending on the nature of the research confidentiality agreements may be required (case-specific) Shared IP for research outcomes
Student engagement: Undergraduate learning opportunities (site tours; design studios; exhibitions; competitions; major research projects;
student placement) Postgraduate research (Masters; PhD; early career research; academic papers and presentations )
Learning events: Two-way cross-promotion of learning events (public lectures; guest lectures by UrbanGrowth NSW; participation in conferences; visiting scholars; webinars; UG and PG course promotion; Participation in community engagement events Research and learning outputs presented at annual State of Engagement Forum (2-day event)

be implemented –
unlike previous
“studies” of
Parramatta Road
Collaborated with
Councils and
agencies to produce a

for the corridor
Gone on public display
twice. This was the
most comprehensive
public display program
that the organisation
has ever undertaken
Taken the
feedback from
those displays to
help draft a final
strategy
What next?

• UrbanGrowth NSW has done what was asked of it (prepare a strategy) and does
not have power to create statutory plans.
• Therefore, our work will now be taken on by the Greater Sydney Commission.
• The Commission will take the planning and design work and embed it into the
District Plans.
• It will also be supported by a Ministerial Direction under Section 117 of the Act.
• Triggers for the release and rezoning of land, including clarity on the timing of
transport infrastructure.
• In particular, the inner part of Parramatta Road needs to have better public
transport, which can only happen when WestConnex is completed.
