Water is critical to the health and resiliency of our communities. Over the last several years, Philadelphia has become a green infrastructure leader through creative policy solutions that work to create vibrant community spaces while managing stormwater. In 2011 the Philadelphia Water department implemented a plan to invest $1.2 Billion over the next 25 years.

All interested parties are welcome to submit a proposal for a 30, 60, or 90 minute Session Proposal (general presentation, not research specific), or a 10-30 minute Research Presentation (must include abstract to be peer reviewed by a panel of qualified CitiesAlive® Advisory Committee academics). Submissions are due by April 30th, 2022.
