About this Event
Health is determined by more than just access to a doctor; it is dictated by the air we breathe in our homes, the stability of our power grid, the materials in our offices, and the tree canopy in our neighborhoods.
Join us for a cross-sector dialogue moderated by Marina Badoian-Kriticos, exploring the "Social Determinants of Health" through the lens of the built environment. This panel brings together experts in energy, architecture, equity, and land use with the medical community to discuss how we can design a Houston that is not only resilient to climate stressors but actively promotes the physical and mental well-being of every resident.
