About Us

Strategic Partnerships

The Canadian Institute of Planners works with like-minded organizations dedicated to advancing Canada’s planning profession.

These strategic partnerships enable us to strengthen our members’ expertise and accelerate progress that we could not achieve on our own. By working alongside trusted partners who share our commitment to positive, sustainable outcomes, we combine knowledge and resources to better serve our members.

These collaborations allow planners to benefit from diverse perspectives, technical capabilities, and real-world insights. Most importantly, our partnerships help ensure that the programs, advocacy, and services we deliver are relevant, resilient, and responsive to our members’ needs.

Through thoughtful partnerships, we’re empowering planners to create meaningful change in communities from coast-to-coast-to-coast.
