Practical guidance, from planning to action.
The Air Quality Monitoring Toolkit helps teams plan a project, set up monitors, and work with the data. It brings practical learning together so local teams can return to it as their work develops.
Learning that stays in the community
Build the confidence to carry the work forward.
We connect equipment skills with interpretation, communication, and local action. Learning should reflect the places where partners live and work.

Practical implementation
Support local teams in installation, calibration, maintenance, and data interpretation. The aim is for partners to sustain their networks and explain what the measurements mean.
Open Air Academy · In development
We are developing a free, self-paced learning programme on monitoring, calibration, data interpretation, and open tools. Educators and practitioners can help shape material grounded in real community needs.
