Creating healthy environments by generating new knowledge and data-driven approaches for where people live, work, play, and learn. Our mission is multifaceted and aims to enhance the well-being and quality of life for individuals and communities. This approach involves leveraging data and research to better understand how various aspects of our built and natural environments impact human health, and using that knowledge to inform decision-making and improve the design and management of these spaces.
