Africa Clean Air Network unites more than 80 institutions to strengthen air quality action across the continent

Speaking to Michael Asharley on Clean Air Report Ghana during the Africa Clean Air Forum in Pretoria, South Africa, leaders of the Africa Clean Air Network (AfriCAN) said the continent is building an unprecedented community of institutions working together to improve air quality, strengthen research and accelerate policy action.

Although organisers are yet to announce the host city for next year's Africa Clean Air Forum, they confirmed it will take place in July 2027 in a different African country."Air quality work in general is a relatively new area in the region, both in terms of policy work and research and all the things that need to happen for us to secure a clean air future," he said.
