International WELL Building Institute
“The Healthy Building Policy Summit, a first-of-its-kind event, represents a critical step forward in our mission to prioritize health and well-being in our buildings, organizations, and communities,” said Rachel Hodgdon, President and CEO, IWBI. “We’re excited to come together around the imperative for healthy buildings and delve further into the full range of policies that can help accelerate people-first places for everyone, everywhere.”
By bringing together a diverse group of policymakers, government officials, industry leaders, and public health experts, the Summit aims to drive discussion, engagement, and meaningful advancements in healthy building policy.
