C2TN is part of the consortium composed by 15 partners that won the Horizon Europe project InChildHealth “Identifying determinants for indoor air quality and their health impact in environments for children: measures to improve indoor air quality and reduce disease burdens”.
The project will integrate health, environmental, technical and social sciences research to identify determinants for Indoor Air Quality and evaluate their impact in environments occupied by school children. InChildHealth will focus on chemicals, particle concentrations, microorganisms and physical parameters in schools, homes, sports halls and transport.
The InChildHealth consortium covers an impressive variety of geographical and cultural diversity, with targeted exposure measurement campaigns and citizen involvement in seven European countries from Northern, Central and Southern Europe and interventions in Australia.
InChildHealth project is coordinated in IST by the C2TN researcher Marta Almeida.
