Sustainable and Healthy Environments Lab

Home Projects People Awards

Our world-leading research seeks to bridge the gap between design and performance across the diverse scales and typologies of the built environment. Our research program is distinguished by our enduring commitment, demonstrable impact, and sustained contributions to advancing environmental and social sustainability, globally and locally.

The SHE Lab operates as a catalytic research ecosystem, convening a diverse network of academics across disciplines, backgrounds, and career stages. It serves as both a leading research hub and a platform for professional development, with a particular emphasis on supporting researchers from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds.

We collaborate with industry, government, and community partners to advance equitable access to sustainable, healthy built environments for all - throughout life.
