Abstract: Abstract In this chapter, Planning for sustainability: Between risks and lifeworlds, Mikaela Vasstrøm and Hans Kjetil Lysgård present ideas of a planning study that takes a critical perspective on planning. What are the alternative planning ideas? Planning is a field where different paradigms meet. How can one approach that? Their suggestion is a combination of participatory and critical planning. There is a strong account of planning and sustainability with better links between planning and Higher Education. Empowerment may provide a connection. For both planning and education, we need an understanding of context. The discussion of universities is thought-provoking.
