Mark your calendars for 13 April, the first of two face-to-face Americas Regional Network Meetings. Hosted by the Guatemala GBC, it will follow their inaugural conference, which will itself be part of a series of Road to Rio+20 events in Central America. These events are being held in partnership with UNEP Latin America and will cover the theme of Green Building in the New Green Economy as part of the run up to Rio+20 in June.
