2025 Awardee

AWAIR Project

The award will support the deployment of 80 affordable PM2.5 sensors in key locations in Lebanon–such as in schools, hospitals and health care centers, and social spaces. It will also reactivate an existing reference-grade monitor that will provide real-time, open-access data to forecast trends, inform stakeholders, and guide policymakers.

Clean air is a right. By knowing its impact and taking action, every citizen and institution can help protect their health and advocate for a healthier future. Together, we can democratize air monitoring and drive change.
