Since its inception, Canopy Forum has held more than 50 events and hosted hundreds of speakers from the green infrastructure profession, academia, industry, community and government sector.
Melbourne’s Canopy Green Roof Forum showcases the best of Australian city greening and urban green infrastructure projects, strategies and initiatives. Traditionally, the forum has focused on green roofs and walls, but increasingly, other aspects of urban green infrastructure are being explored.
The Canopy Forum brings a diversity of people and expertise together to share knowledge and ideas on urban green infrastructure and city greening. We welcome all members of Melbourne’s community and the broader green infrastructure community, including:
- Melbourne’s developers, building landlords, owners corporations and tenants who want to improve the quality and quantity of greening in their buildings and developments.
- Community members with a passion for greening their rooftops, balconies, facades and gardens.
- The green infrastructure sector including consultants, suppliers, including horticulturalists, landscape architects, architects, sustainability professionals, designers, urban planners, and engineers.
- Academics, students and researchers focusing on urban green infrastructure.
- Government agencies, departments and administration working in the realm of sustainability, greening and cooling policy.
- Private investment and philanthropists with an interest in urban green infrastructure.
