Webinar | EFCN's Quarterly Green Infrastructure Webinar Series: Green Infrastructure 101

Green Infrastructure (GI) is critical to addressing urgent and interrelated water, wastewater, and stormwater infrastructure challenges. GI has not, however, been widely adapted in U.S. municipalities — particularly in small, rural, and tribal communities — due to political barriers, misconceptions, and lack of knowledge or resources to successfully implement GI. In this introductory webinar, we kick off our 10-part series with an overview of basic GI concepts, terminology, and funding sources; as well as challenges and opportunities facing communities and practitioners in the field of GI.

Series Host: Shannon Pepper, Research Scientist, Southwest Environmental Finance Center
