Using data to empower communities and advocate for clean air - Case Study on Breathe Mongolia - Clean Air Coalition

Breathe Mongolia - Clean Air Coalition empowers communities with knowledge and makes the case for air quality action in Mongolia. The organisation has helped build an interactive bilingual air quality monitoring and educational platform, as well as an air quality knowledge management platform. They successfully conducted capacity building sessions including training youth and journalists on sustainability, climate change and air pollution. By providing hard evidence of the air quality crisis, Breathe Mongolia has been able to advocate more effectively for stricter air quality regulations and for greater transparency from the government. This data has also been used to highlight the disparities in air pollution exposure between different regions and communities, pushing for a more equitable approach to tackling the issue.
