Air

Air pollution affects the entire population. The levels of pollutants found in the atmosphere are linked to health risks, and any reduction in exposure to these pollutants would be beneficial.

Our missions

  • Coordinate the Air and Health Monitoring Program (Psas) at the national and regional levels to generate knowledge on the links between air pollution and health and provide decision-making tools

  • Inform public authorities, healthcare professionals, and the general public about the health impacts of air pollution
