The WISIONS team will participate in the Indo-German Dialogue on Green Urban Practices, which will take place from 9 – 11 March 2017 at the Campus of the Indian Institute of Technology in Madras, Chennai, India.

The Indo-German Centre for Sustainability in cooperation with the Wuppertal Institut will facilitate this first Indo-German Dialogue on Urban Green Practices in Chennai.

The symposium serves as a platform to bring together selected people from academia, grassroots activists, environment entrepreneurs and policy makers for a dialogue about the role and potentials that socially innovative individuals and citizens initiatives have in the sustainability transition of cities.

Central to the Dialogue is to utilize the interactive group facilitation method “Collaboratory”, aiming at engaging relevant actors in a collective visioning process around “big” social challenges.

The Dialogue is sponsored by the Heinrich Böll Foundation India and IGCS, held in collaboration with the Consulate General of the Federal Republic of Germany.
