Congress for the New Urbanism (CNU)

The Congress for the New Urbanism (CNU) is a U.S.-based nonprofit organization that organizes an annual Congress and related events. These events focus on urban design, New Urbanism, land use, community development, and best practices in city-building. Their Annual Congress is a significant multi-day conference, attracting over 1,600 attendees, and includes sessions, workshops, tours, and specialized programs for local government and builders. It targets planners, designers, developers, and public officials, making it highly relevant to planning and community development conferences, although its primary emphasis is on New Urbanism and urban design rather than solely zoning.
