Equity is an important objective in the public health field. As the healthy buildings movement continues to grow, it is hugely important to ensure that the research benefits everyone.

The Healthy Buildings research team is dedicated to creating studies that include globally diverse buildings and exposures, races and ethnicities that have been historically under-represented in research, the unique needs, physiology, and preferences of women, and the entirety of the reproduction and life cycles.
