In 2025, Green Roofs for Healthy Cities (GRHC) will be hosting five Regional Grey to Green Conferences. These events will take place in both established and emerging green infrastructure markets, offering localized learning opportunities and connections that reflect the unique environmental and urban challenges of each region.
Each Grey to Green Conference will spotlight cutting-edge technologies, design practices, and policy advancements that drive the adoption of green roofs, living walls, and stormwater management solutions. Attendees will have the chance to engage with industry leaders, researchers, and policymakers through dynamic workshops and inspiring keynotes. By creating opportunities for direct engagement at a local level, GRHC aims to foster actionable solutions that can be implemented in diverse urban contexts.
The 2025 event program underscores GRHC’s commitment to growing the green infrastructure movement and making its benefits accessible to more communities. These regional conferences will enable deeper connections, foster collaboration, and highlight best practices that are shaping the future of sustainable urban development. Stay tuned for updates on conference locations, dates, and programming as we prepare for a transformative year in green infrastructure advocacy and education.
