Why Elvis works for Clean Air Fund?
Over the years, I have experienced at first hand the increasing levels of air pollution and the negative health impact it can have on the environment and human health in West Africa. My role at Clean Air Fund allows me to make a positive impact through engaging stakeholders for actions and initiatives that can reduce air pollution levels, protect human health and contribute to reducing predicted climate impacts.
