Activities - Advice

The INTA Advisory Services are developed to assist urban policy makers to make justified policy choices and provide them with support for strategic debate.



Due to the generosity of its members, INTA is able to bring together from its wide membership expertise, international groups of urban practitioners to assist a member with a particular urban project for which external recommendations and international visibility is needed.

These advisory groups are composed of public and private developers, local and regional development officials, members of the financial community, architects, planners, engineers and academics, with extensive experience in the issues to be reviewed.

Different formats of Advice are offered to members:

INTA International Advisory Panels
Widely known as the 'INTA Panel', the International Advisory Panel is an international voluntary advisory service in support to public authorities or private sector stakeholders, providing a coherent and specific urban development vision, based on highly intensive exploration of all issues and opportunities. The INTA Panel is a peer-to-peer exercise, where a group of INTA members with experience in a particular field come together for intensive work during one week with the local team in charge of an urban project, visiting the sites, interviewing local stakeholders and preparing recommendations withdrawn from the experience of the members. This unique development problem-solving process provides policy-makers with an external vision and new operational plans as well as recommendations for its implementation.
