This pre-conference workshop will focus on the significant role of shade in reducing skin cancer risk and how to deliver and sustain quality shade in the built environment.

The complex context of delivering shade effectively in the built environment will be explored through presentations, panel discussions, case studies and a site visit. A key outcome of the day is to share strategies and tactics to deliver long term sustainable quality shade outcomes.
