Conference
Air pollution causes 7 million premature deaths globally every year, of which 11 000 in the Nordic countries. Improved air quality is a global challenge for human health and sustainable development - and joint problems require joint solutions.
The Solutions Initiative Forum - Air will describe this challenge and present a set of selected hands-on solutions that originates from the Nordic countries. A solution is a small company, start-up or project that, if scaled up, has the ability to improve air quality globally.
