The HEICCAM Network builds a multi-sectoral network of leading researchers, diverse stakeholders and the public to strengthen evidence about the solutions for protecting health from air pollution at the indoor/outdoor interface as we transition to a low carbon future.
To achieve this the Network intends to:
- Convene an interdisciplinary, multi-sectoral network to improve understanding of key trade-offs and future challenges relating to the consequences of climate change and clean air policy measures on exposure to air pollutants in the connected indoor and outdoor environments;
- Facilitate interactions between early career and established researchers across air pollution, building design, public health and behavioural science disciplines to help grow capability in transdisciplinary research in this domain;
- Undertake targeted evidence synthesis, modelling studies and empirical research to guide network discussions;
- Co-produce agenda setting papers for science and policy audiences outlining critical policy and research needs aligned to the clean air programme;
- Disseminate the findings of the network to the wider research community, stakeholders and the public and promote impact on policy, practice and future research.
