The Partnership is a collaboration among businesses, organizations, government agencies and other entities interested in promoting meaningful and effective education in lighting.
“WAC Group is pleased to announce its partnership in the LHRC (Light and Health Research Center) by becoming a member of the Lighting Education Partnership,” said Becky Li, President of WAC Group. “WAC Group and all of our brands are committed to helping the LHRC promote the use of light to help improve the well-being of people.

The mission of the LHRC’s Lighting Education Partnership is to deliver high-quality education that expands understanding of the value of lighting among end-users.
