Clean Air Indoor for Schools Programme

The Need

Many youths spend considerable time indoors. In Hong Kong, attending school is mandatory for children aged 6-15, with about 8 hours of time per school day spent indoors.

Without proper IAQ management in the schools in the polluted districts, prolonged period of staying indoor would expose youths to high health risks from air pollution, particularly in the most polluted districts in Hong Kong.

Our Objective

After gain the success of the Clean Air Schools for Hong Kong project, which enables CAN to accumulate experience working with schools, this Clean Air Indoor for Schools Programme aims to ensure healthy IAQ standards for schools located in the most polluted districts of Hong Kong.

The Program will support schools through provision of indoor air quality monitoring and recommendations for improvement measures.
