Global Commission on Healthy Indoor Air

Meeting the call to action to improve public health and boost human performance.

WHAT WE DO

An ambitious, solutions-focused initiative to improve the quality of our indoor air 

The Global Commission on Healthy Indoor Air brings together a distinguished group of international leaders and experts in public health, science, academia, policy and industry to develop a bold, solutions-driven strategy for improving indoor air quality in all 
buildings around the world.

Launched at the United Nations on September 23, 2025, the Commission will work collaboratively to develop a Global Framework for Action, articulating a global vision and objectives, core principles and guiding values, and key strategic pillars.

FRAMEWORK

An engine for driving global action

With indoor air quality directly linked to health, cognitive function and overall well-being, the Commission’s Global Framework for Action will serve as a powerful framework to drive lasting improvements, supporting cleaner, healthier indoor environments in homes, schools, workplaces and public spaces worldwide.

By charting a bold path forward and delivering a transdisciplinary strategy, the Commission seeks to empower decision-makers, accelerate innovation, unlock new sources of funding, shape policy and raise public awareness such that the health, economic and societal benefits of healthy indoor air are recognized, prioritized and realized at scale.

Through a multi-year, collaborative effort, the Commission will accelerate the adoption of proven solutions and strategies, fostering innovation and job creation across sectors. Recognizing the unique needs and opportunities of different regions, the Commission will support the development of country-level National Blueprints for Healthy Indoor Air, each articulating a localized set of recommendations on funding, policy, education, public awareness, advocacy and market transformation.

In addition to leading the development of the Global Framework for Action and supporting the proliferation of National Blueprints, the Commission will deliver a suite of other high-impact outputs, such as op-eds, blogs, feature articles and social media posts, as well as one-pagers, policy briefs and other sub-national reports—designed to inform, inspire and accelerate change. Stored collectively on the Commission website, this portfolio of materials and resources ensures that critical insights and solutions reach key audiences across sectors and geographies.

These efforts aim to catalyze a movement that ensures indoor air quality is prioritized alongside other critical health and environmental issues.

A global crisis


Poor indoor air quality represents a pervasive public health crisis—one that demands urgent, coordinated global action. From homes and schools to workplaces and public spaces, poor indoor air contributes to respiratory diseases and illnesses, cardiovascular disease, cognitive decline and rising healthcare costs for billions of people around the world.

Today people spend about 90% of their time indoors, where the air can be as much as three to five times more polluted than outdoor air. Though critical to human health and performance, indoor air quality has remained an underrecognized and long-neglected issue.

The Global Commission on Healthy Indoor Air was created to change that. The Commission is an unparalleled force shaping market transformation and accelerating healthy indoor air.


Who we are

The Global Commission on Healthy Indoor Air is comprised of more than 170 renowned international leaders and experts spanning public health, science, academia, policy and industry who are banding together to advance a Global Framework for Action for making healthy indoor environments the norm—not the exception—in all buildings everywhere.

Hailing from more than 30 countries across every region of the world, each Commissioner is dedicated to making this effort a turning point in how we prioritize indoor air - bringing expertise, influence, and a sense of urgency to ensure lasting change.

Together, this distinguished group of Commissioners represents the vanguard of global leadership committed to advancing healthier lives through healthy indoor air.

TESTIMONIALS

What Commissioners are saying

The Commission is the signature global coalition of leaders championing healthy indoor air. Read what Commissioners are saying about their role and the need for global solutions to address healthy indoor air. 

  • “At The Safer Air Project, we’ve championed indoor air quality as an accessibility and inclusion issue, informed by the experiences of people with chronic health conditions who face increased risks from the air we share indoors. I’m honoured that this issue has been recognised and will be included through the Global Commission, to help ensure clean air is treated as a human right, so everyone can breathe safely indoors.”

    — Plum Stone, Founder and CEO, The Safer Air Project, and Co-Chair of the Commission

  • “The impacts of polluted indoor air—worsened by wildfires and climate change—are not felt equally. Vulnerable communities, especially children, bear the heaviest burden. Poor air quality doesn’t just reduce performance; it harms health, development, and opportunity. That’s why I’m honored to serve as co-chair of the Global Commission on Healthy Indoor Air, working with international partners to elevate this overlooked determinant of global health and health equity. Together, we aim to make clean, safe indoor air a universal right and a global standard of care.”

    — Yele Aluko, MD, MBA, Health Industry Strategist at the Harvard Business Review and former Chief Medical Officer at EY, and Co-Chair of the Commission

  • daniel stephen hart

    “The places where we live and work are among the most powerful determinants of our health. The launch of the Global Commission on Healthy Indoor Air marks a historic step in placing indoor air at the center of the global health agenda. By bringing together leaders across science, medicine, policy and industry, we now have the chance to build a united framework that protects health, advances resilience, and ensures that clean, safe air is a right for all.”

    — Alessandro Miani, President, SIMA, Società Italiana di Medicina Ambientale, and Co-Chair of the Commission

  • “The air we breathe inside our homes and buildings has major impacts on our health, and those impacts are largely undervalued by the industries and decision-makers that have power to ensure healthy indoor air for all. This commission will sound the alarm on this critical issue, and highlight that healthy indoor air for all is within our grasp today. This will take courage and coordination, and I look forward to joining others in building the momentum we need!”

    — Lindsay Baker, CEO, International Living Future Institute (ILFI)

  • “The interiors and built environments we create must do more than function; they must nurture, affirm and inspire. Around the world, people seek clarity, community and connection in their spaces. Ensuring healthy indoor air is not simply a design imperative--it is essential to emotional well-being and a profound expression of care for people and their lives. I am honored to join the Global Commission on Healthy Indoor Air, where design, health and humanity intersect.”

    — Cheryl Durst, Executive Vice President and CEO, International Interior Designers Association

  • “Clean indoor air is a fundamental human right—and a business imperative. Yet capital markets and employers have been slow to recognize how IAQ drives recruiting, retention, and performance. As a member of the Global Commission on Healthy Indoor Air, I will work to align science, policy, and capital so that healthy air becomes a non-negotiable standard in every workplace—and this Commission will accelerate that shift.”
