🚨 A new paper recently published in Building and Environment by members of the team, titled “Paradigm shifts in indoor air quality: Insights from the 2025 Stanford forum on sustainable and healthy buildings”.
This paper presents insights from the 2025 Stanford Forum on Sustainable and Healthy Buildings, co-hosted by Stanford University, ThriveIAQ, and QUT (Queensland University of Technology). The forum convened experts across government, academia, public health, and industry to examine the feasibility of implementing indoor air quality (IAQ) performance standards aligned with energy efficiency and climate goals.
Key outcomes included working groups dedicated to standards and policy approaches, building the economic case and market alignment, pilot projects, and education and knowledge dissemination.
This paper summarizes forum findings and offers practical strategies to elevate clean indoor air as essential public health infrastructure, advancing both human and planetary health through healthier, more resilient buildings.
