EUGIC brings world-class urban green infrastructure experts, practitioners, policy makers, designers and implementers to London in April to share and celebrate nature-based solutions for climate-adapted, resilient, healthy cities. As previously, 300-400 participants are expected.
This high-level European event will be opened by London Deputy Mayor for the Environment & Energy, Shirley Rodrigues, and is supported by the Mayor’s Office and the Greater London Authority (GLA), and is co-hosted by The Bartlett, UCL and Loughborough University London.
The conference takes place 10-11 April 2019 at Here East in the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park. This is the third in the series, following EUGIC 2015 Vienna and EUGIC 2017 Budapest.
The EUGIC process is closely aligned with the European Union’s Green Infrastructure Strategy. EUGIC 2019 London will also link with the launch of the Mayor of London’s Green Roofs & Walls Technical Report 10 year update, Greener Cities: London, Europe and Beyond.
