Environmental Health Centre

The Environmental Health Centre, operated by the Dalhousie University Medical School, is the first of its kind in Canada. It focuses on the disorder generally known as Multiple Chemical Sensitivity, and the fundamental philosophy that informed its design is that the design of the landscape, the building and its systems, the selection of building materials and the construction process should all convey a healthy and healing environment where people can get better.
