Two years after the launch of the Universal Charter for National Park Cities and the London National Park City, there are people around the world working towards making their city a National Park City. From Adelaide to Manila and Tokyo to Sacramento, people from different places and cultures are coming together with shared hopes and ambitions.
National Park City Week is an opportunity to come together to be inspired and learn from each other. Whether you are a curious student, city resident, community activist, political decision maker, artist, conservationist, health leader, academic or working on a National Park City campaign, everyone is welcome to learn from and contribute to this growing movement.
Events are being organised by people in Adelaide, Calgary, Glasgow, London, Louisville, Manila, Sacramento and Seoul.
As part of the events the National Park City Journey Book will be launched. This short guide details how to make your city a National Park City, the benefits of joining the National Park City Family and explains the process for officially gaining the status.
