Asset Management for Green Infrastructure

Asset Management for Green Infrastructure
IPWEA, in conjunction with Landscape Federation of Australia and  Active Green Services invite you to attend this "Asset Management for Green Infrastructure” webinar to delve into the world of Green Infrastructure and how you can include it in your asset and financial management plans.

Green Infrastructure assets include street trees, gardens, parks, nature reserves, green walls and roofs, rivers, streams, water sensitive urban design components, mangroves, living shorelines, hybrid reefs and other nature based assets.

Together the benefits and enhanced services that Green Infrastructure assets can provide are extensive. Globally, the value of ecosystem services from Green Infrastructure has been estimated to provide benefits of US $125-140 trillion per year - more than 1.5 times the size of global GDP (Nature4Climate, 2023).

Benefits and services include:

  • stormwater reduction and treatment;
  • air and water quality improvement;
  • mitigation of urban heat island effects;
  • reduction of energy consumption in buildings;
  • the storing of carbon;
  • protection of wildlife habitat;
  • enhanced tourism and recreational opportunities;
  • improvement in human health and well-being;
  • and much more.
