This session will share lessons learned from United Tribes Technical College's (UTTC) master plan that serves as a living document and adapts to changing needs. We'll explore how this culture-infused master plan applied an integrated approach to campus development over five years, addressing five primary needs with a focus on culture, regenerative design, and phasing to support strategic alignment. Join us to discover how you can implement campuswide resiliency strategies to safeguard the campus environment and gain insights into the phased implementation approach for ensuring the plan's success and sustainability over time.

Learning Outcomes:

  1. Develop culturally-integrated vision statements and regenerative design principles for campus master plans.
  2. Identify phased strategies that align with the institution's strategic plan for healthy, sustainable development.
  3. Apply a comprehensive regenerative design framework, including carbon footprint mitigation and habitat preservation.
  4. Apply insights from the first five years of implementation to adapt and maintain flexibility within a master plan document aimed at campus sustainability.
