 Greening Government Conference
  November 29-30, 2011 National Arts Centre Ottawa



 
 
 


The 2nd Annual Greening Government conference held in Toronto June 2011 was a great success. After reviewing the delegate feedback, we have decided to host an additional Greening Government conference in Ottawa. We have developed a new dynamic program which will include panel discussions and breakout sessions.

This program is designed to be an interactive experience for delegates through organized and informal discussions. Learn innovative strategies, proven solutions, best practices and the latest information and research within greening initiatives. Learn how these procedures and policies can be implemented efficiently and how these practices can be disseminated into the public and private sector.

This conference offers a unique and valuable opportunity to network and exchange information with various government officials, green teams, environmentally conscious organizations and suppliers from across Canada.


Key Topics to be Addressed:

  • Updates on the Federal Sustainable Development Strategy – Implementation and Targets
  • Green Procurement – Sustainable Return on Investment, Assessing Suppliers
  • Staff Engagement and Employee Behaviour - Best Practices for Implementing a Green Team including Motivation Techniques & Strategies
  • Behavioural Change Strategies - Using Technology and Social Marketing
  • Sustainable Building Design and Infrastructure
  • Green Fleet and Transportation Programs
