Green Infrastructure Partnership (GIP)

The Green Infrastructure Partnership (GIP) is a rapidly growing network of more than 2,000 people and organisations that support the creation, enhancement and promotion of green infrastructure (GI) in the UK to improve quality of life, health, ecological diversity, resilience to climate change and economic attractiveness.

Membership of the Green Infrastructure Partnership is free: Sign up here to join the GIP

The GIP enables people to share information - research, innovation, news and best practice - via newsletters and events. Its strategic focus is to influence key decision-makers by ensuring they have appropriate evidence about the value of GI to inform their decisions.

We publish the Green Infrastructure Resource Library (see below) a free, searchable database of research and other resources about green infrastructure, and have an online calendar of green infrastructure events (see below) in the UK and Europe.

The GIP is funded by a range of supporters - we are grateful to the following for their sponsorship: The Land Trust, Arup, the National Trust, GreenBlue Urban; Canal & River Trust; the Landscape Institute. Benefits of sponsoring GIP include excellent networking opportunities across the sector; invitations to key meetings, events and presentations; and the chance to help promote green infrastructure at a strategic level nationally. If you are interested in sponsoring the GIP please contact Julia Thrift on julia.thrift@tcpa.org.uk

Come to our conference on 11 October 2017 - for more information see here. GIP members get half price tickets.
