Welcome to The Nordic Park Congress 2023!
Kaupunginpuutarhurien Seura (The Association of City Gardeners) together with the City of Helsinki organizes the Nordic Park Congress on September 13-16, 2023. The Nordic Park Congress was organized last time in Iceland in 2018. Due to the impact of Covid-19, the event has been postponed, but now it's finally time to meet our Nordic and domestic colleagues.
The theme of the congress is nature-based and climate-wise green areas. The theme has been developed together with our Nordic colleagues and the topic is very current everywhere and a challenge for cities to implement.
