The event was facilitated by Ideas for Change* as hybrid event in Barcelona and online. In this event, Olivia Sweeney shared insights about their inspiring citizen science projects:
Weblinks to the presented project [1] “AI and wearables: innovative tech for fighting air pollution” and [2] “Young runners use wearable tech to capture air quality data in African cities”

*Background:
This event on citizen generated data & citizen science was initiated as part of the Air for All project:
Air for All is an Erasmus+ cofunded project that will evolve a knowledge toolkit for [1] helping citizens to better understand the effects of air pollution, emissions and climate change, and for [2] helping cities to leverage civic participation for air quality data collection. AirForAll will also [3] launch a digital, freely accessible platform for knowledge transfer & capacity building on EU and international level. - The latter is this platform you are visiting just now.
Air for All is conducted by the Air Quality Organisation Västmanland County (Sweden), Ideas for Change (Spain) and Proofing Future Europe (Belgium / Germany).
