While the demand for
Southface educational programs and technical services
grows every day, one of the organization’s flagship events
remains Greenprints: Sustainable Communities by Design.
GEFA has been proud to Co-Host the Greenprints Conference
with Southface since the event first convened in 1998.
While paving the way for other green building conferences
nationwide, Greenprints remains dedicated to being
the Southeast’s most affordable, hands-on learning
experience. Our success has been made possible by the
support and involvement of our participants from the
commercial and residential design and construction
communities, leaders in energy and land use policy
and our sponsors and exhibitors.
Last year, over 1,200 attendees participated in Greenprints.
This year, Southface and GEFA are partnering with the
Urban Land Institute Atlanta District Council, EarthCraft
House and the U.S. Green Building Council to develop
a comprehensive agenda addressing policy, community
planning and residential and commercial design and
construction. Every stakeholder in sustainability will
find resources and tools that will enable them to make
a difference. In this issue of the Southface Journal,
the Greenprints experience is highlighted as part of
Southface’s remarkable effort to remain a central force
in transforming the market toward energy and resource
efficient practices. Enjoy this publication, and mark
your calendar to join us at Greenprints 2004, March
18 and 19, in Atlanta!
