Advancing Sustainability Performance: A Research and Practice Forum presented by PD&R

HUD's Office of Policy Development and Research is hosting an Advancing Sustainability Performance: A Research and Practice Forum on September 28, 2011. This event will explore the latest developments in the field of sustainability performance. Hear commentary from practitioners and policymakers from local and the federal government, nonprofit and private sectors, and the research community. The winning proposals for HUD’s recent Sustainable Communities Research Grant competition will be presented, and two panels will discuss the opportunities and challenges for retrofitting multifamily housing and the current state and future directions of sustainability performance metrics.

The forum will immediately follow Solutions for Sustainable Communities: 2011 Learning Conference on State and Local Housing Policy, an event hosted by the National Housing Conference and Center for Housing Policy September 26–28. Solutions for Sustainable Communities will arm practitioners and policymakers with the best available information on how states and localities are working collaboratively and creatively to develop more sustainable and inclusive communities while reducing overall government costs.
