The International Academic Association on Planning, Law and Property Rights (PLPR) was founded in Amsterdam 2007 as an offshoot of a theme group under AESOP. The second conference was held in Warsaw 2008 and the third conference will be in Aalborg in February 2009.

The PLPR Academic Association focuses on the connections between Planning and Law in a broad sense. Law is an essential element of planning. It provides planning authorities with statutory powers to prepare, adopt and enforce plans as well as limiting the planning powers for the protection of individual rights. The role of law in planning is not confined to planning law, as planning and implementation of development in urban and rural areas address a broader range of legal issues.
