…This educator-led session presents findings from a multidisciplinary, post-occupancy design research initiative that examined how targeted environmental interventions, specifically the integration of teacher wellness spaces, can support educator health, safety, and well-being in education settings. Drawing on empirical outcomes, design documentation, and implementation insights, the session connects research evidence to real-world school environments. Attendees will explore how design strategies aligned with HSW priorities can be adapted across diverse educational contexts, budgets, and facility constraints.
