The indoor air: from science to policy (PDF) talk was the first in the Global Indoor Air Quality and Respiratory Infection webinar series, held on 13 October 2021 with guest speaker Distinguished Professor Lidia Morawska.
The monthly webinar series was part of the EPSRC/Surrey supported Official Development Assistance (ODA) project “Knowledge transfer and practical application of research on indoor air quality (KTP-IAQ)”. It brought together speakers from a number of GCARE's collaborative institutions across the world, including partners from the GCRF supported CArE-Homes (and CArE-Cities) projects that have been successful in monitoring household air pollution in several low-income homes in 12 cities across 12 ODA countries.
It served as a knowledge exchange platform across the ODA countries with the aim to share and discuss state-of-the-art best practices on indoor air quality and respiratory infection globally. The series exploited this knowledge by presenting the take of science during the global pandemic where indoor environments became even more important than ever. Such knowledge exchange will surely make a positive impact on the health and wellbeing of people.
