Building Safe, Healthy and Livable Communities
The New Partners for Smart Growth Conference has grown significantly
since it began several years ago — increasing in scope, attendance,
and prestige — and is now considered to be the "premier" smart growth
conference held each year. The strength of this conference comes from
the variety of participants and speakers who cross disciplines to
share experiences and insights, and valuable tools and strategies
to encourage smart growth implementation and "get it done."
The 2008 conference continues this exciting trend and includes more new
partners than ever. We expect this to be our largest ever, surpassing
the tremendous success of the recent 2007 New Partners for Smart Growth
Conference in Los Angeles which boasted over 1500 participants, 300
speakers, and 96 sessions over three full days.
Washington, DC is the ideal location for this event. Bringing
together the cultural vibrancy and economic growth with the iconic
history of our nation's capital and its neighborhoods, this region
provides a wealth of innovative policies at the state, local and
federal levels to examine. Whether it’s the overwhelming success of
the transit system, creative housing strategies to promote affordability
or environmental benchmarks to ensure clean air and water, significant
lessons about smart growth can be learned here. Participants will come
to see a region that is setting the pace for livable communities both
inside and outside the Beltway.
