Ghana EPA honoured at Africa Clean Air Forum for progress in tackling air pollution

Ghana's Environmental Protection Authority (EPA) has been recognised at the Africa Clean Air Forum in Pretoria, South Africa, as one of only seven organisations worldwide honoured for making significant progress in tackling air pollution through improved air quality monitoring and policy action.

The EPA is one of only seven recipients of the EPIC Air Quality Fund Milestone Award, which honours organisations making measurable national progress in tackling air pollution.

The other awardees came from The Gambia, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Pakistan, Malawi, Nigeria and Liberia, where projects have expanded monitoring networks, improved public access to air quality data and supported the development of national clean air policies.
