regional economic planning

Regional economic planning involves coordinating policies and investments across a geographic area—such as a city, region, or metro area—to promote sustainable growth, improve infrastructure, attract businesses, and create jobs. It considers local strengths and challenges, aiming to balance development, enhance quality of life, and reduce disparities. By assessing factors like transportation, education, industry, and environment, planners develop strategic plans that guide public and private investments, ensuring the region’s long-term economic health and resilience.
