May 25-27, 2009, Stuttgart / Nuertingen, Germany

No other element in sustainable architecture has seen technical innovations develop so fast, as in the field of green roofs.

Therefore it is about time to reinforce the green roof network and to provide a platform for an intensive exchange of knowledge and expertise.

The International Green Roof Congress 2009 will address fascinating projects designed by renowned architecture firms, as well as the international trends and standards relating to green roofs. In addition, the congress programme will have a distinctively interactive style with practical workshops and green roof excursions.

From the 25th to the 27th of May 2009, Stuttgart/Nuertingen (Germany) will become the platform for the world of green roofs. The event, which is under the patronage of the German Federal Ministry of  Transport, Building and Urban Affairs, is being organized by the International Green Roof Association (IGRA) and the German Roof Gardener Association (DDV). The congress languages are English and German (simultaneous translation).
