Effective Air Quality Management (AQM) enables key stakeholders to set goals, undertake measures to improve and maintain good air quality, and reduce impacts on human health and the environment. Active involvement of stakeholders is essential in ensuring effectiveness of these measures. Thus, it is imperative that their knowledge, skills, and attitudes are enhanced and strengthened through capacity building programs and approaches that address knowledge gaps as well as foster cooperation among them.
The training aims to equip decision-makers with updated knowledge and information on AQM in cities, enabling them to make informed decisions when planning city development and measuring the environmental impacts of policy decisions.
The primary target audience of the workshop are representatives from national environment ministries, cities – urban managers, implementers, and other interested agencies and stakeholder groups.
