The 2nd European Urban Green Infrastructure Conference (EUGIC) is set to take place in Budapest (Hungary) from 29 - 30 November 2017.

The conference will bring together urban green infrastructure leaders, cities and businesses from across the world to share projects, visions and research on working with nature to make cities more livable.

A mix of keynote speeches, audience discussions and group sessions make up the conference programme, with workshops on a wide range of urban greening topics included. Holger Robrecht, Deputy Director of ICLEI Europe, will deliver a presentation titled “Sustainable cities and the benefits of green infrastructure to reach our goals.”

Two unique sessions will be held during the event: “Industry Speed Dating”, which gives industry a chance to show recent developments in urban green infrastructure, and “Spotlight on Horizon 2020”, which focuses on projects from the EU’s Horizon 2020 programme in cities across Europe.

The conference is organised by CEEweb for Biodiversity, Livingroofs.org and the EFB, hosted by the City of Budapest and endorsed by ICLEI Europe.
