May 1, 2024 | WEBINAR: Leveraging the Envision Framework for Sustainable Development: A/E/C Project Planning & Learning from an Environmental Planning Perspective
1 – 2 PM ET
This forward-thinking workshop aims to explore the transformative impact of the Envision framework on environmental planning and the broader field of sustainable infrastructure development. Led by a seasoned environmental planner and academic, it will share insights into how sustainable development has evolved with the advent of comprehensive tools like Envision, emphasizing its role in integrating sustainability into the fabric of infrastructure projects. We will delve into the framework's capacity to foster synergy among diverse disciplines such as engineering, architecture, and construction, highlighting the increasingly interdisciplinary nature of sustainability efforts. Drawing from my dual experiences in professional practice and education, the workshop will offer a personal perspective on how Envision and similar tools have facilitated a deeper understanding of sustainable development, both in the field and the classroom. This interactive session invites interdisciplinary development professionals to reflect on the past, navigate the present, and envision a sustainable future for infrastructure development. Learning objectives:
  1. Participants will gain an environmental planning approach to understanding the Envision framework, including its structure, sustainability criteria, and application processes for infrastructure projects.
  2. Attendees will be able to understand and integrate core principles of sustainable development into project planning, ensuring that projects contribute positively to economic, social, and environmental objectives.
  3. Acquire effective communication strategies for imparting knowledge of sustainable development and the Envision framework to diverse audiences, promoting broader understanding and implementation of sustainability practices.
