Air quality experts from across Africa and globally will convene in Nairobi this July for the third edition of the Championing Livable Urban Environments through African Networks for Air (CLEAN-Air) Forum to discuss the pressing issue of air pollution on the continent.
The CLEAN Air Forum, held under the theme "Partnerships for Clean Air Solutions", will run from July 15th to 17th, bringing together air quality communities of practice, including government leaders, researchers, civil society representatives, city planners, development partners, youth, and private sector actors.
According to a joint press statement to newsrooms, the forum is organised by AirQo, a pan-African air quality research initiative at Makerere University, the Health Effects Institute, and World Resources Institute Africa, in collaboration with the Nairobi City County Government.
The Forum hopes to build on the success of previous editions held in Kampala in 2023 and Lagos in 2024.
