In keeping with the theme of Intercultural Urbanism my inaugural essay briefly describes the philosophical and practical commitments of an approach to urban planning and design that\u2019s sensitive\u00a0to cultural diversity in ways of being and building. The essay is inspired by the\u00a0&#8220;diversity deficit&#8221; in contemporary \u00a0thinking about urban planning that&#8217;s been noted by several influential mainstream urbanists. There&#8217;s already a strong literature that can serve as a guide for addressing this deficit. \u00a0I argue that we need to\u00a0renew the\u00a0conversation about cultural diversity and its implications for planning theory and practice, a conversation that&#8217;s fallen off a bit in the last 5 years. \u00a0Casting\u00a0widely across cultures, histories, and disciplines for planning concepts\u00a0and precedents\u00a0is essential if we desire a more comprehensive agenda for dealing with the many urban challenges that currently bedevil us.
