Air quality communication in NW Europe

Joaquin developed a support base for policy changes by involving an extended stakeholder consultation process during the lifetime of the project and by raising the awareness of the general public on the health effects of air pollution.

Developing a common approach to air quality and health information and investigating if providing SMS information and living advice to vulnerable people encourages behavioural change.

Joaquin has undertaken several actions regarding people sensitive to air pollution. This report brings all actions together and explains the process undertaken (e.g. focus groups), the information packs developed and air quality indicators currently available.
