Urban Tree Knowledge
For 2022 the Trees and Design Action Group (TDAG) was invited to set up an urban tree knowledge hub (Stand A81) with six research partners and the Institute of Chartered Foresters and the Arboricultural Association. TDAG has also curated this talks session over a wide range of topics including urban trees in the Green Infrastructure and Biodiversity Pavilion to provide a mixture of research and practice and to show how research can and should be used in practice.
