Category Spotlight | PIA WA Awards for Planning Excellence

The PIA WA Awards for Planning Excellence recognise the people, projects and processes that are creating positive change across Western Australia.

We’re turning the spotlight on three key categories:

Stakeholder Engagement sponsored by Insight Urbanism Pty Ltd
This award recognises initiatives and outcomes in implementing best practice public engagement that achieves genuine collaborative outcomes that leads to improved built form, planning processes or social outcomes.

Planning with Country sponsored by Lavan
This award seeks to recognise and bring light to changing the established ways of working with Country, so that more planning projects embrace and integrate Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander knowledge, culture, and tradition in all aspects of a project’s life.

Technology & Digital Innovation
This award recognises the importance of technology and digital innovation in 21st-century planning.

Do you know a project, initiative or team that deserves recognition? Now is the time to celebrate the planning work shaping WA’s future.

It's great to be in Bunbury for the PIA WA Regional Conference 2026 on a sunny but cold winter's day. Thank you to City of Bunbury for your support and Phil Diamond, Brad Repacholi and Barbara from the Bunbury Museum & Heritage Centre for sharing the engaging history and stories of Bunbury and its buildings with us on the Heritage walking tour.
