About SIMNA’s Social Value in Infrastructure, Planning and Development Roundtables
SIMNA’s Social Value in Infrastructure, Planning and Development Roundtables connect members with experience or an interest in applying social impact principles to infrastructure and development projects. Regular roundtable discussions take place online and the group also hosts occasional webinars on related topics.
Recognising the distinct challenges that arise in these sectors compared to traditional social service or enterprise settings, the group explores issues such as energy transition and climate change adaptation, migration patterns and their impact on social infrastructure needs, social impacts of densification and the provision of infill infrastructure, the importance of fit-for-purpose social infrastructure that includes consideration of all gender provision and cultural needs and the importance of placemaking to wellbeing outcomes.
