This year’s conference will be building on the growth and considerable momentum that we have developed over the past four years since Green Roofs Australia Inc was established as the peak, not-for-profit green roof and wall association.
The primary objectives of this year’s conference are to support the green roof and wall industries in Australia and New Zealand:
- Focus on driving green roof and wall implementation
- Supporting different sectors and disciplines to share an appreciation of their benefits and application for our climate
- Demonstrating the technological and environmental benefits, sharing and disseminating good practice and promoting the implementation of green roofs and walls into our cities
We look forward to seeing you at the conference and sharing in the opportunities and growth of this exciting new industry.
