"Clean Air for Georgian Cities" on Radio "Tavisupleba"
On the 14th of April, the project "Clean Air for Georgian Cities" was presented on the
morning program on radio "Tavisupleba". The chairman of the foundation "Partnership for Road Safety" Gela Kvashilava talked about the importance of
the innovative project. He also discussed the current air pollution, low quality
of transport and the problems related to transport in Georgia.
The
overall purpose of the project "Clean Air for Georgian Cities" is to promote
healthier, cleaner air throughout Georgia’s cities through implementing a
powerful community-led advocacy and monitoring campaign. The project’s specific
objective is to monitor air quality through a public, cost-effective monitoring
system throughout Georgia. The project includes several components, such as
arranging the eco clubs at schools and involving the children in the process of
collecting data on air quality, and installing "air quality monitoring sensors" in different cities, which provide the information in the automated regime and
create the database.
The
project is being realized by the foundation "Partnership for Road Safety" and
partner organizations "Elva" and "Eco Vision".
