Clean Air Fund is a global philanthropic organisation that brings together governments, campaigners, researchers, funders, and businesses to create a world where everyone breathes clean air.

Their ambitious Clean Air for All strategy (2023-2026) aims to:

  • Galvanise global leaders to agree significant action on air pollution
  • Drive significant progress on reducing air pollution in at least 8 countries and 55 cities, through ambitious laws and policies
