CitiesAlive 2022: The Homecoming, Green Infrastructure & Water in a Changing Climate
CitiesAlive is back in 2022 from November 13 - 16, and it’s going to be bigger and better than ever! GRHC’s last two conferences took place virtually, so we are excited to announce that our next conference will take place in person! This multidisciplinary conference will be hosted in Philadelphia, where we will be highlighting innovative green roof designs, groundbreaking policies, and the best products and services in the green infrastructure industry, specifically focusing on green roofs and walls.
The content in Philadelphia will focus on the theme, Green Infrastructure & Water in a Changing Climate. Water is critical to the health and resiliency of our communities. Over the last several years, Philadelphia has become a green infrastructure leader through creative policy solutions that work to create vibrant community spaces while managing stormwater. CitiesAlive 2022 presents an opportunity to reflect on the Philadelphia Water Department’s 2011 commitment to invest $1.2 Billion into green infrastructure over the next 25 years and create a framework to strengthen policies and programs across the country.
CitiesAlive will feature various opportunities for attendees to network and engage with experts like design professionals in the field. CitiesAlive will provide you with a unique opportunity to identify and conduct Business to Business and Business to Consumer transactions, to network, and to have fun and learn. Our specialized programming is focused on engaging young design professionals and students who are the specifiers, designers, and researchers and policy makers of tomorrow.
CitiesAlive 2022 will offer a special tradeshow which will show attendees all the new and exciting ways to explore the future application of green infrastructure. We will continue to have outstanding presentations in our ever-evolving industry. Learn about the new products and services that are available in our Product Showcase. CitiesAlive 2022 will also have expert roundtables, so attendees can get expert advice! Recognized experts will be available for smaller roundtable discussions covering a wide range of topics. Of course, CitiesAlive 2022 will continue offering CEU credits, and attendees will have opportunities to take our new courses which are eligible for AIA CES, LA CES, APLD, BOMI, and GRP Credits.
