We instinctively know that green is good, but have you ever wondered why? Do you know how good it is for us, and do you wonder why we don’t have more of it in our streets and squares? Are you passionate about Greening Up your community and want to know how you can make it happen? Do you want to develop your green design skills and meet likeminded urban greening enthusiasts?
If so, our upcoming Greening Up course with Oxford University is not to be missed! On Friday the 25th April join our in-house experts Eleanor Broad and Tom Noble in the beautiful city of Oxford for a deeply informative and enjoyable introduction to all things street greenery. Based on our landmark Greening Up study, you will learn about the myriad benefits for people, place and planet, find out about the latest methodologies for measuring how green your neighbourhood is, hear about places that are getting it right, and gain hands on experience in designing a Greening Up strategy for a very special street.
As the celebrated urbanist Carlos Moreno said in his endorsement of Greening Up: “Greening our cities is urgent; it is our duty, it is our obligation.” If that resonates with you, follow this link for full details of the one day course and to sign up: https://www.conted.ox.ac.uk/courses/greening-up-why-and-how-to-re-green-towns-and-cities?code=O24P296PAR
