The focus for the Urban Design Professional Practice Network (PPN) session will be centered on sustainable green infrastructure. We are hosting a green infrastructure in urban design roundtable. Join us to discuss how to incorporate this important component in urban design plans. Our session will be interactive and evaluate strategies, policy, and design ideas for green infrastructure initiatives. We also want to crowdsource ideas as we create the 2025 Urban Design PPN plan for next year.

We look forward to seeing you in D.C.!
