WELL Equity Rating by the International WELL Building Institute (IWBI) Health Equity Advisory empowers organizations to act and drive accountability toward their diversity, equity, inclusion and accessibility goals. The WELL Equity Rating is a set of evidence-based strategies from the WELL Standard for transforming how places are designed, operated, and managed to create environments where everyone can thrive. By meeting at least 21 of 43 features, a project can earn a WELL Equity seal.
As of 2023, dual LEED (Us Green Building Council) and WELL (International WELL Building Institute-IWBI) certifications that bridge the market will elevate green and healthy buildings along with equity in the built environment. Certifications are being coordinated by GBCI – a third-party credentialing and verification party.
