GREEN SURGE to host free forum on cities' transformation through urban green

Green infrastructure provides cities with many opportunities to make neighbourhoods more attractive (again). But how can local governments strategically and successfully use urban green to transform their cities and make them more cohesive in the face of shrinking budgets and lack of housing?

GREEN SURGE partners are organising the third and final GREEN SURGE Stakeholder Dialogue Forum on urban green infrastructure on 10 May 2017 in Essen (Germany). The European Green Capital 2017 Essen (Germany) as well as next year's European Green Capital 2018 Nijmegen (The Netherlands) will together with Malmච(Sweden) and Oradea (Romania) showcase how they regenerated their neighbourhoods through urban green. The GREEN Technical University of Berlin will contribute their newest research findings on the topic.

This free event from 8:30-16:00 also provides the participants with the opportunity to explore this highly relevant topic on the ground with a field trip in the afternoon as the city of Essen and the Ruhr region have decade-long experience in implementing green infrastructure for a sustainable and attractive city region.
