Description
Summary:This paper is an effort to think and to put into evidence the relationships that connect the land management to planning. It is a personal vision and as such it has all the idiosyncrasies and biases. It departs from the clearing of ideas of certain fallacies relating economic growth, development and sustainable development; in order to link the professional work of Geography with planning and investment projects —public and/or private— seen as new market niches to geographers in the process of identification and formulation as well as in the management. The elements that join one topic to another have to pass through the discussion of the strategic approach of territorial planning, as well as by the definition of the necessary tools for its implementation and of the investment projects that impact the territory. Finally, I point to the fact that in order to incorporate the geographers in better conditions to issues of planning, identification of investment projects—as well as management, follow up, plan and project monitoring and evaluation—it is necessary to insist in teaching topics related to strategic planning and managerial indicators.
