Clear Skies Ahead: Unveiling the Climate and Clean Air Coalition’s Air Quality Management Exchange Platform (AQMx)

Air pollution impacts us all, with 99% of the world breathing polluted air leading to over 8 million premature deaths per year, often affecting the most vulnerable in our societies. There remain significant data gaps on the true impacts of air pollution around the world, and tackling harmful air pollution must be viewed as a global climate and health challenge that requires global solutions. Just as air pollution knows no borders, neither should the fight against it.

Join us on September 5, 2024, from 14:00-15:00 CET for a virtual launch event of the Air Quality Management Exchange Platform (AQMx), a “one-stop shop” for the latest guidance and tools on air quality management, setting forward a clear path to meeting interim targets identified in the WHO Air Quality Guidelines.  

This new platform represents a whole-of-United-Nations-approach, and was developed in response to a UNEA-6 resolution in February 2024, where countries called for increased global cooperation to tackle air pollution, and to collectively share best practices, tools, data, and information in order to plug gaps that exist in monitoring air quality.
