Tackling indoor and outdoor air pollution for a healthier future
We bring together leading scientists and organisations to better predict air pollution’s health effects, with a focus on vulnerable groups like children and the elderly. Our work enables researchers to effect change where it is needed, while helping industries develop emission-reducing technologies for cleaner growth and reduced health risks.
