About the General Discussion: category

This category is for general discussions about peri-urban issues, news, and community updates. Feel free to introduce yourself, share ideas, and engage with others on topics that don’t fit into other specific categories.

Why should people use this category? What is it for? This is a space for open-ended conversations. Members can introduce themselves, share general thoughts about peri-urban development, or post about anything that doesn’t fit into the more specific categories.

How exactly is this different than the other categories we already have? While other categories are more focused on specific topics such as policy or land use, this space is for broad, cross-cutting discussions that might not have a specific technical focus.

What should topics in this category generally contain? Topics can vary widely but should focus on peri-urban development, general urbanization trends, or any global news that may impact peri-urban regions.

Do we need this category? Can we merge with another category, or subcategory? Yes, we need this as a general catch-all category. It should not be merged because it provides space for informal or broad conversations that don’t fit elsewhere.
