The conference will be three full days (Oct. 5/6/7) with a pre-conference day on Oct. 4. Each of the three conference days will have a particular focus or emphasis:

  • Day 1 - Governance and Industry Collaboration: The hard part’s the ‘how’—transforming the urban sustainability vision into strategy, policy and successful industry partnerships.
  • Day 2 - Green Economy: Building the 'real value' case for sustainability, capturing the opportunity in the green economy for building a green business culture.
  • Day 3 - Community Engagement and Social Innovation: Examining the intersection between urban design and planning, and human health and community well-being.

These themed conference days will stand alone for those with a particular area of interest and limited time but build powerfully on each other for those who invest in the full-conference experience.

Date: October 4 - 7, 2010
Location:
