AIPH announces global partnership with local and regional government network for the World Green City Awards

 

The International Association of Horticultural Producers (AIPH) announces a partnership with the World Organisation of United Cities and Local Governments (UCLG) in support of the AIPH World Green City Awards.

AIPH initiated the Green City awards to bring wide recognition to the value of plants in urban areas and create an enabling environment to shape and nurture a strategic shift in city planning and governance. Through the Awards and their Green City Programme, AIPH promotes awareness of the urgent need for urban greening and the essential role of plants in creating vibrant urban areas. AIPH’s mission is to develop an international standard for green cities as well as being a focal point for green city best practice and a source of expertise.
