Cities are expanding and temperatures are rising, so how can nature be used to support better ecosystems for our future communities? Ecological engineers are instrumental in enhancing the sustainability of our cities, reducing heat and increasing amenity value using living green infrastructure.
Join experts from Griffith University’s Green Infrastructure Research Labs (GIRLS) on a walking tour around South Bank to explore innovative green walls, roofs, street trees and other urban greenery. Students will meet the scientists shaping the future of our city, get hands-on with the tools used to measure how urban design impacts our daily lives, and discover how different fields like urban planning, engineering, and plant science come together to build a better, greener world.
