The WHO has released a new set of Science and Policy Summaries (SPS) aimed at reducing the health impacts of air pollution globally.
The announcement follows the Second WHO Global Conference on Air Pollution and Health, held in March 2025 in Cartagena, Colombia.
These SPS documents are designed to provide the sector-specific policy guidance, particularly for low- and middle-income countries that face a disproportionate burden from air pollution.
The SPS series translates the latest scientific evidence into actionable policy recommendations for governments and decision-makers.
WHO aims to drive coordinated efforts across sectors such as transport, energy, waste management, and agriculture, all of which significantly contribute to airquality.
