TOPIC: Building Sustainable Communities
Our roundtable will be a discussion about how to set up, launch and grow green community hubs around the region. These hubs incubate green businesses, educate the community on sustainability issues and facilitate the implementation of green solutions.
Based on the Livability Project Framework and the success of Bethesda Green, Dave Feldman will share lessons learned in leadership, entrepreneurship, sustainability and organizational development and introduce ways to jump-start long-lasting sustainability initiatives in your community.
