gaining prominence over the years.

World Green Infrastructure Conference intends to create awareness through conferences and
presentations by eminent personalities who walk-the-talk of green living. Additionally, it is a platform to
learn best practices, discuss the latest industry trends, available green technology and network with
academics and professionals.

Given the times we live in, sustainable and smart living has to go hand-in-hand to support the need of
Green Infrastructure. The implementation of the same will need an equal participation from both public
and private sectors in creation of smart green cities. Green infrastructure includes established green
spaces, parks and gardens, natural and semi-natural urban green spaces, green corridors, green roofs
and green walls.

generates the lowest carbon footprint possible.
This is achieved by bringing together the
community of local residents, neighbours,
workers, professionals and organisations who
strive to balance ecological, economic, and social
needs to ensure a clean, healthy and safe
environment for society and for future generations.
