WORKSHOP

This workshop builds upon work undertaken as part of the City of Melbourne-led Assessing the Economic Value of Green Infrastructure project. As part of the project, a Green Infrastructure Economic Framework for local government was developed. Using a peer-to-peer learning model guided by the framework creators, this workshop will focus on specific issues that practitioners in the green infrastructure area are currently facing. These include valuing green infrastructure; building the business case; and embedding practice into operational frameworks.

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.

Jessica Christensen-Franks, Neighbourlytics

Stacey Murray, Alfalfa Social Media

MASTERCLASS (cont. in Session 6O)

This interactive and participatory session will explore how the Eco-city philosophy has influenced Melbourne Water to lead with innovation and work together with partners and community.

Innovations will be demonstrated by discussing key challenges in water supply and waste water treatment and new service offerings such as management of catchments and waterways, codigestion of wastes at the Western Treatment Plant, embedding urban design through masterplanning and engagement and Integrated Water Management. An overview of the key strategies and plans that are under development at Melbourne Water for these programs will be presented and explored.
