India Clean Air Connect is a response to air quality convenings hosted by the India Climate Collaborative, Clean Air Fund, ClimateWorks Foundation and Shakti Sustainable Energy Foundation in 2019 and 2020.
India's air pollution is not limited to one city or one source
Solving for India's air pollution crisis means:
1.
Aligning efforts across different disciplines to address multiple sources of pollution
2.
Improving air quality in all 124 non-attainment cities, 73 polluted industrial clusters and more
3.
Amplifying and strengthening existing efforts and networks
124 Non-attainment cities
73 Critically polluted industrial clusters
If your work seeks to improve India’s air quality through communication, advocacy, research, policy change, planning, litigation, community engagement or market-based solutions, join #IndiaCleanAirConnect

About the Event
The India Clean Air Summit (ICAS) is the Center for Study of Science, Technology and Policy’s (CSTEP’s) flagship event on air pollution. The event is organised by the Centre for Air Pollution Studies (CAPS) at CSTEP and serves as an important platform for shaping the narrative and driving action on air quality in India. By embracing an integrative and holistic approach, ICAS aims to facilitate critical and meaningful dialogue on the challenges and opportunities surrounding air quality in India.
Â
In the fifth edition of ICAS, the plan is to explore the need to prioritise clean air for sustainable development and Mission LiFE—India’s most ambitious policy yet to address climate change. Therefore, ICAS 2023 will be held with the theme of ‘Prioritising Clean Air for Sustainable Development and Mission LiFE’. The lack of clean air can surely thwart our best-made plans for a better future. Through the discussions, we hope to better understand how both national and global policies related to sustainable development and net zero can reflect on and address air pollution.
