The project aims to demonstrate the economic and social benefits of cleaner air and showcase the urgency for action. It will build on existing data to show the linkages between air pollution and key policy areas, map and analyse the existing policy framework, including the revision of the Ambient Air Quality Directive, and put forward policy recommendations for further action.
