Loved this video, I'm taking a module on community organizing this term and I really appreciated getting your insight into this path! You mentioned that you could be doing a different job and earning a lot more and I deffo relate to that feeling of responsibility over "giving back" to the city and having an ethical job, and if it's something you see yourself doing I would love a video about how urban planning as a field can either improve or help perpetuate bad conditions in cities, like the ambivalence between careers in com development and downtown planning offices for instance. Thanks, and good luck with everything! :)
That's so interesting you are doing community work and your job doesn't require you to have a car. I'm an outreach coordinator and it's literally in my job description to have a vehicle, but they don't compensate for cost of maintaining a vehicle. But I am so interested in doing the type of work you do. Also I feel like we have similar thought on community outreach and the day to day. I appreciate you being so open and honest about your job.
Hi Sadiyah, thank you for sharing your journey on here. I am an urban planner myself, based in South Africa. I am trying to navigate through the job market abroad, do you perhaps have any tips on how to go about finding jobs for international candidates? And have you personally ever considered working for government?
I have been enjoying all the videos you have about your profession as i try to decide if i want to go that way as well. It would be awesome if the audio was more balanced, as the music and effects are much louder than your speaking (it seems like those effects and music are normal volume compared to other videos on YT and your speaking is what should be tweaked). TY TY TY for this detailed content!!!
I just finished my 3rd week as a geography and planning student. Wouldn't have chosen it without you! It's fun
