Wherever you're from and whatever your background, we’re glad you’re here!
The PGH Platform is a movement and meeting space for people who care about making places healthier and more just for everyone. At the heart of our work is environmental health equity — the idea that everyone has the right to live in a healthy environment. We bring together people from across fields — design, planning, healthcare, community development, research, the arts, and more — to share knowledge, ask questions, and build better ways forward.
The platform
Support open dialogue and creative exchange
Share insights that challenge business-as-usual
Highlight projects that work in diverse local contexts
Promote long-term, meaningful change — from the smallest rooms to the largest cities
Whether you're an architect, policymaker, community advocate — or just someone curious about how design shapes daily life — you’re in the right place.
Take a look around, explore our work, and join the conversation. We’d love to welcome you into the dialogue — and into action.
