5-6 April, Birmingham
The triennial urban trees research conference, Trees People and the Built Environment 3 (TPBE 3) will take place next spring, following on from acclaimed events in 2011 and 2014. This year the conference will focus on two significant areas of research;

The event will provide a platform for UK and international researchers and practitioners to showcase their vital work in these areas, and help both built and natural environment professionals turn this research into action.
