What if buildings and organizations were designed to be a powerful force for human health? This is more than a bright idea: It is the IWBI ethos and the core intention behind WELL.

We are excited to be part of the Aspen Ideas Health event to discuss how healthy buildings can support healthy lives. IWBI President and CEO, Rachel Hodgdon, will take the stage on June 23 with Joseph Allen and Diana Araoz-Frazer in a panel moderated by Céline Gounder.

Last week, our WELL community came together to explore the critical intersection of climate resilience, human health and sustainable development.

Because planetary and human health are inextricably linked, future-proofing our buildings is essential to addressing the climate crisis.

Throughout the day, we explored how the built environment can act as a bridge between the two—proving that what is good for the planet is ultimately what is best for people.

Thank you to all who joined us and to our incredible partners for their support!

In a thoughtful episode of Air Quality Matters, IWBI President and CEO Rachel Hodgdon joins Simon Jones for a deep conversation on the future of healthy buildings, indoor environmental quality and the growing need to translate science into practical action and measurable results across the built environment.

The data proves just how massive those measurable results can be. According to a Building and Environment study, improved ventilation rates can result in an estimated $38 billion in annual economic benefits. It's a powerful example of the research-backed solutions that make WELL so impactful.

In the episode, Rachel and Simon explore how elements of health, science, engineering and professionalism come together through WELL, and how these vital ideas can extend beyond workplaces into schools, homes and communities that need them most.

We've been hard at work with a major evolution of the Works with WELL program, expanding alignment pathways for products, technologies and services that support WELL strategies and healthier spaces. This also includes a redesigned platform and streamlined user experience.

As organizations increasingly look for integrated solutions that support health, well-being and performance, the expanded program creates new ways for manufacturers, service providers and innovators to connect their offerings to WELL strategies — while making it easier for project teams and specifiers to identify aligned solutions.

Together with the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America (AAFA) and IFMA, we are proud to honor ARPA-H with a Leadership in Innovation Award recognizing the agency’s pioneering efforts to bridge innovation, public health and the built environment through breakthrough research and development in healthy indoor air.

We applaud the groundbreaking work of ARPA-H through its BREATHE and PRO-MICROBE programs — two bold R&D initiatives helping to revolutionize how indoor environments are understood, monitored and optimized to protect and enhance human health.

Can data centers be built in sustainable ways that don't overwhelm electrical infrastructure? Can they operate sustainably, even contributing power to our existing grids?

Join us on June 11 at 10 a.m. ET for a webcast that will explore these questions and more. With Anthony Paul Seiler and Beth Rattner, both leading thought leaders on sustainability strategies in the data center sector, we will dive into the environmental challenges and potential solutions shaping the evolution of the AI landscape.

Together with Panasonic Electric Works Co., Ltd., we were pleased to announce new findings from a Panasonic EW-led study at our Summit in Tokyo. The findings indicate that workplaces significantly outperform non-certified spaces—delivering substantial gains in employee well-being, engagement and workplace experience—and underscoring the powerful connection between healthy building strategies, human performance and organizational resilience.

Drawing on more than 4,200 occupant surveys across 41 office projects in Japan, the study provides one of the most comprehensive analyses to date of how health-focused buildings translate into measurable outcomes.

: Developed by Pecan Development and designed by Tchoban Voss Architekten, Dockyard completes the waterfront development at Berlin’s historic Osthafen and sets new benchmarks for sustainable and future-oriented workplaces.

With climate- and resource-conscious hybrid timber construction, the project combines high-quality workplace environments with an innovative energy concept. The Dockyard office complex operates on a net-zero basis, featuring one of Germany’s largest ice-storage systems and renewable energy sources including geothermal energy, solar power and ambient air.

The building's WELL Platinum Certification reinforces Dockyard’s strong focus on health, comfort and user experience—from natural light and indoor environmental quality to flexible workspaces, rooftop terraces and amenities designed for modern ways of working.

Congratulations to all those who worked on this incredible project.
