Description
Did you know your physical, mental, and social health and life expectancy are impacted by the design and operation of the buildings in which you live and work? Ultimately, your zip code affects your well-being more than your genetic code. Joanna Frank, President & CEO, Center for Active Design, and President & CEO, Active Design Advisors, joins me on the Innovations Storytellers podcast to share her insights on this fascinating topic. I learn more about the Center for Active Design's mission to transform design and development practice to support health, ensuring equitable access to vibrant public and private spaces that support optimal quality of life. We also discuss how CfAD operates the Fitwel healthy building certification system and applies its multi-disciplinary expertise to empower decision-makers, providing publications, original research, certification, technical assistance, and digital tools.
