Speakers from Turkey and around the world will illustrate how Green Cities can become a reality and how this will benefit the lives of citizens now and in the future.
The Conference is sponsored by the AIPH-approved A1 International Horticultural Exhibition, Expo 2016 Antalya, and will fit the Expo theme of ‘Flowers and Children - A Green Life for Future Generations’. The EXPO site, a 112-hectare exhibit area, will include exhibition spaces for participant countries to introduce their gardening cultures, as well as a number of structures for entertaining, education, culture and business. It is taking place from 23 April to 30 October 2016.
