The United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), the United Nations Human Settlements Programme and IQAir have launched the world’s largest air quality data platform. Urban Air Action Platform gathers air pollution information provided in real time by more than 4,000 contributors, including citizens and the private sector.
“Air pollution is a public health and environmental emergency that affects us all, everywhere in the world. We are delighted to launch this partnership with UN-HABITAT and IQ Air that will provide information and, most importantly, encourage action from citizens, governments and the private sector,” said UNEP Deputy Executive Director Joyce Msuya.
