Abstract
According to health research and the World Health Organization (WHO), air pollution in urban areas leads to 3 million premature deaths annually. Concerns about the human health impact of air pollution has prompted the development of many community-led air quality monitoring initiatives, which has helped to bring the topic to a wider audience and mobilise policy change. However, as yet there is no large scale coordinated effort for community- led air quality monitoring. This policy brief presents a framework for organizing a yearly European Clean Air Day, starting from 20th June 2019, with the objective of scaling up European awareness of air quality issues, and ways in which air quality can be improved. The brief presents a range of fi nancing options and tools for air quality monitoring within grassroots organisations.
