Healthy Buildings

Facilities Management's Healthy Buildings Initiative

In support of UMN Safe Campus, Facilities Management is committed to creating healthy, comfortable, and sustainable indoor environments for its Twin Cities campus community. With that commitment as a guide, the Healthy Buildings Workgroup was formed and serves as a Twin Cities campus consolidation point for building occupant health issues and concerns.

The workgroup collaboratively and transparently involves and informs stakeholders across campus on topics included in this group's scope which focuses on 10 foundations of healthy buildings as defined by Harvard’s School of Public Health 9 Foundations and APPA’s 10 Foundational Elements of Productive, Smart Buildings. Learn more about each foundation in the information listed below.
