A Five-Year Reflection on the 3+30+300 Principle: Strategies for Operationalization in US Cities

Rising urban heat, climate volatility, and tree equity issues make thriving urban forests and accessible green spaces more important than ever. Dr. Cecil Konijnendijk developed the 3+30+300 principle in response to this need. Join us on Tuesday, July 21, at 11 a.m. ET as Dr. Konijnendijk shares the foundations of his framework and discusses lessons from the past five years of global implementation.

Following Dr. Konijnendijk, Davey Resource Group’s Will Ayersman will share ways communities throughout the U.S. can customize this principle to fit their unique local contexts and turn insights into action using Tree Keeper Canopy and a Smart Urban Tree Canopy Analysis.

Numerous guidelines and benchmarks have been introduced to guide urban forestry programs over the last several decades. While these benchmarks can be valuable tools for program assessment and goal-setting, they must be thoughtfully applied to reflect each community’s unique needs. This webinar provides practical guidance on leveraging the 3+30+300 principle to develop localized urban forestry strategies that support long-term community goals.
