Aesthetic Biodiversity in a Changing Urban Environment

Topical Peer Conversation

This Peer Conversation will focus on resilient landscapes that require minimal inputs but provide high-impact multifunctional plantings. 

Discussion leaders will review how exposure to green infrastructure and parks can help lower the risk of mental illness, increase physical activity, and promote overall well-being. Participants will share ideas on site analysis, plant community design, installation, maintenance, and measures of success.
