This study's objective was to thoroughly evaluate associations between PM pollutants and cardiovascular disease mortality in Shanghai, China, from 2003 to 2020. The study found that PM pollutants had a significant association with cardiovascular disease mortality during the study period.

Vital Strategies has partnered with the Asia-Pacific Regional Network for Early Childhood Development (ARNEC) to publish this advocacy brief to highlight the specific risk that air pollution poses to young children, and a list of actions that we can all take to reduce this risk.

This study aimed to quantify the health and economic impacts of air pollution—fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and ground-level Ozone (O3), which exceeded the local and global ambient air quality standards—in Jakarta Province, the capital of Indonesia.

This brief provides an overview on using satellite data for air quality and health applications, resources and trainings for cities to start integrating satellite data into their air quality management plans and national and access to regional datasets.

This report details a new approach in air quality management that combines conventional solutions with innovations in monitoring, assessment, data use, and organization can accelerate clean air action, especially in cities with presently limited technical capacity.

The Children Environmental Health Indicators project represents a critical first step toward providing a safer and healthier environment for children in China.

Vital Strategies in partnership with UNICEF has developed a technical brief to support governments, academia, and civil society in developing a tracking system for children’s environmental health indicators in their own countries.

Bien que la pollution de l’air puisse être à la fois contrôlée et évitée, elle n’en reste pas moins un sujet largement négligé, ce qui nuit à la santé et au bien-être des populations. Ce document a été conçu pour présenter des données probantes et des expériences aux décideurs politiques, afin d’inspirer des politiques de mobilité urbaine qui permettent de sauver des vies en améliorant l'air que nous respirons.
