In this talk\, Dr. Matthew Trowbridge\, Associate Professor in the University of Virginia (UVA) School of Medicine and principal investigator of the ‚ÄòGreen Health Partnership‚Äô between UVA and the U.S. Green Building Council\, will share insights from his work exploring one exciting opportunity to help bring healthy place-making to scale: collaboration between public health and the green building industry.  Over the past 20 years\, U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC)\, a leader in the green building movement\, has successfully established sustainability as a shared value and focus for all facets of theglobal real estate industry through a focus on market transformation. For example\, since its inception in 2000\, the LEED green building certification has been used to certify >80\,000 projects and more than 200\,000 real estate practitioners have become certified LEED AP professionals. With funding from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation\, UVA and USGBC are working together to develop and launch new health promotion tools for use within LEED and other green building frameworks. “ \n
