There is a convergence of need, demand, and self-preservation for greatly improved global health. The COVID-19 pandemic has geometrically exacerbated these needs:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“‘Nobody is Safe Until Everyone is Safe’: World Leaders Call For Global Pandemic Preparedness Treaty,”<\/a> Forbes, March 30, 2021<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In recent decades the world has moved swiftly toward global communications, education, transportation, tourism and hotels, militaries, but sadly global health has not kept up with the geometrically accelerating challenges and demands that have left global health so far behind. Today there are estimates that the population of planet earth exceeds 7.7 billion people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Winston Churchill said, “We shape our buildings and then they shape us,” nowhere is this more true than in Architecture for Health<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
