Consultation open between 30 April and 28 June 2024.

On behalf of the South Australian Government, we at Green Adelaide, released the draft strategy for consultation on 30 April to increase metropolitan Adelaide’s tree canopy, cool the city and boost biodiversity.

This metro-wide Urban Greening Strategy will be used to bring together government, councils, non-government organisations, industry peak bodies, research institutions, Kaurna and the broader community to deliver practical greening actions that will help achieve a more liveable city.
