    More than 680 built environment experts from 51 countries have called upon the World Health Organization to advance the universal belief that our buildings play a crucial role in the fight against #COVID19.

    Our buildings are a critical part of our defense to today's public health crisis. Science-based solutions will help save the lives of many. 

    Thank you to those that signed in this grassroots effort over the last few weeks.
