The world green infrastructure network (WGIN)

Since 2009, the non-for-profit umbrella association WGIN has expanded globally to now represent 22 National Associations and has held ten World Green Infrastructure Congresses (WGIC). WGIN has established supportive working research committees and has an active enthusiastic board of directors representing eleven nations. Primary driver is passion and a strong united belief that our world can be developed progressively with innovation however there needs to be a balance; a respect and a synergy with NATURE. The transition from ‘grey to green infrastructure’ for building and urban design is what drives our efforts as a collaborative global network because “vegetation makes it possible”!

ProGIreg stands for ‘productive Green Infrastructure for post-industrial urban regeneration’: nature for renewal. As front-runner cities, Dortmund (Germany), Turin (Italy), Zagreb (Croatia) and Ningbo (China) host Living Labs in post-industrial districts where nature-based solutions are developed, tested and implemented. Global cities working together: Cascais (Portugal), Cluj-Napoca (Romania), Piraeus (Greece) and Zenica (Bosnia and Herzegovina) closely follow the progress in the Living Labs and engage in city-to-city exchange to replicate the nature-based solutions. EFB is very proud to engage itself as partner of the project.
