Convening

The work of planting and caring for trees is too important to do alone. That’s why we’re proud to connect people, organizations, and ideas at major events around the world to promote and ensure the future of trees. 

The bigger picture

A group of trees together makes a larger, more lasting impact than a single tree alone. The same goes for the people who advocate for them. When we convene tree leaders from around the world, we spark the conversations, ideas, and actions that change the world.

The Arbor Day Foundation is honored to take part in and lead some of the most important conversations about the future of trees. In those moments we can amplify our voices and others. And more importantly, we can take time to listen. Because the only way to do work that changes the world is to do it together.

Leading From the Front

Our team brings a variety of expertise and thought leadership to events like Climate Week, COP, the World Forum on Urban Forestry, and more. If you’re interested in collaborating on a future event, we’d love to hear from you.
