educated - trained for this?

and discussions are “idealistic”, how can curricula reflect more down to

earth needs but being aware that these are very delicate situations with

which we need to deal very carefully

4. In the crisis circumstances planners will be asked for solutions with which

they possibly disagree (like the way to deal with refugees). How do they

deal with this?

5. Is there a question of ethics here, and where is its limit?

In Medicine: Hippocratic Oath

§ 8:

ἐς οἰκίας δὲ ὁκόσας ἂν ἐσίω, ἐσελεύσομαι ἐπ᾽ ὠφελείῃ καμνόντων, ἐκτὸς

ἐὼν πάσης ἀδικίης ἑκουσίης καὶ φθορίης, τῆς τε ἄλλης καὶ ἀφροδισίων

ἔργων ἐπί τε γυναικείων σωμάτων καὶ ἀνδρῴων, ἐλευθέρων τε καὶ δούλων.

Whatsoever house I may enter, my visit shall be for the convenience and

advantage of the patient; and I will willingly refrain from doing any injury or

wrong from falsehood, and (in an especial manner) from acts of an amorous

nature, whatever may be the rank of those who it may be my duty to cure,

whether mistress or servant, bond or free.

In planning: Who are we planning for?

What exactly should we plan?
