We Know What We're Doing: The Youth-Led Movement for Clean Air

In this insightful episode of Conversations on Climate Change and Health, we spotlight a bold, youth-led movement that's transforming the air we breathe. From the crowded streets of Accra to the alleys of Nairobi, young citizens are rising—not just with placards, but with precision advocacy powered by science.

🎧 Join us as we chat with Lord and Becky from the Accra Cityzens Hub (UrbanBetter Science) — a dynamic initiative where youth collect real-time air quality data, craft policy briefs, and lead awareness campaigns that are reshaping urban health narratives. From influencing marathon safety protocols to training young advocates, their impact is undeniable.

🔬 In our Research Spotlight, we travel to Mathare, Kenya, where a landmark study, "Why Participation Matters for Air Quality Studies", shows how community involvement in air monitoring can drive real change. Because when communities lead, transformation follows.

This is more than air pollution—this is a public health movement.
💡 Tune in. Be inspired. And remember: we know what we're doing.
