The conference theme emphasises the inseparable bond between us and the natural world.

  • Environment and biodiversity: Understand the science promoting positive outcomes for the environment and biodiversity.
  • Technology and innovation: Learn from international experts about the technological advancements and innovative practices that are supporting sustainable resource management and environmental protection.
  • Built environment and urban form: Understand how urban design and architecture can foster a sense of community and connection to the natural world.
  • Building neighborhoods that help communities thrive and create a sense of place: Creating spaces that nurture community bonds and a deep connection to their natural and cultural environments.
