Get involved in the global movement for people first places: Join the International WELL Building Institute (IWBI) and start leading the way.

IWBI membership is a high-profile investment in the global movement for people first places. Becoming a member showcases your leadership and connects you to a global network of organizations committed to building a better world for people everywhere. Members gain access to exclusive virtual opportunities to network with other members and provide thought leadership content, all designed to strengthen this movement of changemakers, drive progress and scale impact. 

Membership also makes you a better partner to projects seeking a certification, accreditation or rating based on the WELL Building Standard. Benefits include access to exclusive IWBI-product discounts, many of which can be passed on to clients.

Additional membership benefits include:

• Enhanced Visibility: Promote your commitment to health and wellness with the IWBI membership mark and an entry in the IWBI member directory.

• Exclusive Resources: Gain special access to WELL events and trainings, including an “Intro to WELL" or "Why WELL" presentation by an IWBI team member, with an audience of your choosing.

• Impactful discounts: WELL member organizations can pursue their health and well-being efforts at rates that are infinitely scalable.

Pick a tier, and plug into the benefits that fit your organization.

Organizations that directly impact the built environment—such as architecture, design, building and construction firms and product manufacturers—are particularly well positioned to benefit from IWBI membership. Often, these organizations are potential agents of change in public health without even knowing it. Membership can also be a powerful investment for nonprofits and civic organizations. IWBI membership is designed to give them the tools to improve human health and well-being. 

Membership options to fit your needs

Cornerstone membership is for organizations looking to align their health and well-being efforts with WELL. It represents an investment in the WELL movement, the global effort to orient buildings and communities around human need. Learn more about the specific benefits under “What does IWBI membership cost?”

Keystone membership is for organizations looking to unlock our highest level of exclusive benefits and demonstrate their leadership in health and wellness. In addition to the benefits conferred on Cornerstone members, Keystone members receive two more free passes to the WELL Conference, along with opportunities to share their perspectives on people first places via webcasts, newsletters and spotlight articles.
