Strategies for driving rapid progress in decarbonising cities and communities

Best practice implementation of Urban Forest strategies – a mini master class from leading city and industry practitioners

Whether you are listening or not, your community is talking. While face-to-face conversation is often preferable, it isn’t always possible. Thankfully, technology is helping make it easier than ever to engage those who don’t have the time or ability to participate in traditional meetings or public events. Digital engagement efforts primarily work in two ways. Digital tools can help you measure what people in your community are thinking, and they can help you create an online forum where people can share and debate ideas. This session will cover both in depth.
