Building Design Strategies
in the Fight Against COVID-19Buildings, communities and organizations play a leading role in supporting our health and well-being, as well as our collective ability to prepare for and respond to global health challenges like the one we’re experiencing now.
The WELL Building Standard has identified and grouped select, applicable strategies from the WELL Building Standard v2 pilot (WELL v2) around key themes that reflect how organizations can approach prevention and preparedness, resilience and recovery in relation to COVID-19 and other respiratory infections, from enhancing air quality to supporting mental health.
Many of the evidence-based strategies within WELL v2, spanning building design and operations, as well as company policies and culture, are providing an actionable framework for organizations and communities responding to COVID-19 and preparing for a safer and healthier future.
