Event Description
This spring, Confluence: Where Ideas and Practice Meet returns to spotlight Exploration Green — a leading Houston-area example of how nature-based infrastructure is improving water quality, strengthening flood resilience, and shaping vibrant community spaces.
Centered on a real-world case study, the program brings together voices from design, implementation, and stewardship to explore how projects evolve from initial concept to long-term performance. Through a featured presentation and moderated panel discussion, attendees will gain practical insights into how stormwater management strategies and ongoing monitoring translate into measurable environmental and community outcomes.

1.50 CM credits from the American Planning Association
