Infographic and brochure design for UNICEF climate team. Air pollution is killing children. Around 300 million children currently live in areas where the air is toxic – exceeding international limits by at least six times1 and over half a million children under five years died from air pollution related causes in 2016. Millions more suffer from respiratory diseases that diminish their resilience and affect their physical and cognitive development2. An essential component of formulating effective policy responses and targeting children particularly at risk is a reliable local air quality monitoring network. These networks are anchored by high quality measurement stations on the ground that are used to improve the estimates made by satellite measurements and lower cost monitors. These high-quality measurement stations are particularly lacking in Africa both due to the limitations in government budgets and a reliable network of neutral, secure premises.
