7 AM – 8:15 AM CT | 8 AM – 9:15 AM ET

On September 8, 2026 — following the UN International Day of Clean Air for Blue Skies on the 7th, the EPIC Air Quality Fund will host a live, online, high-visibility session in which organizations, governments, and companies from around the world will publicly announce concrete clean air commitments for the coming year. Think of it as a global stage for your entity’s clean air ambition — whether that’s funding, data, policy, technology, advocacy, or something else entirely.

Led by Christa Hasenkopf, Director of the EPIC Clean Air Program, the event will feature a keynote from Ambassador Samantha Power and a panel of representatives from clean air-relevant organizations, moderated by journalist Rebecca Root. The session will culminate in a global roll call of regional pledge announcements.

Want to join organizations from around the world in making a clean air commitment? Learn more about the Pledge and how to participate here.
