Welcome to the ASAQ Annual Seminar.
Air quality research in Africa has grown in recent years but remains limited compared to other continents. Most studies focus on urban centers, with significant gaps in monitoring, data availability, and health impact assessments. The continent faces rising air pollution due to rapid urbanization and industrialization, yet systematic research and policy responses lag the scale of the problem.
We are pleased to announce this year’s Annual Seminar of the African Society for Air Quality (ASAQ), dedicated to advancing air quality research across Africa. This year’s seminar will bring together leading scientists to address the urgent challenges of air pollution on the continent.
Key topics will include pollutants and sources, trends of ambient and indoor air pollution, AI and air quality data analytics, instrumentation and advances in air quality monitoring, health impacts, effective management strategies, ongoing projects and collaboration efforts, and the importance of building local capacity and data infrastructure.
All those who wish to present their work on one of the above topics are requested to submit an abstract of less than 200 words.
Participation in the seminar is totally free of charge.
For any inquiries or questions, please contact us at: afs4aq@gmail.com.
