11 September 2018 − our environmental expert Božica Šorgić, PhD participated in a two-day workshop on air quality TAIEX-EIR P2P that took place in Graz, Austria.
She was one of 85 experts from 13 EU countries who exchanged their experience and good practice on air pollution reduction. The main areas addressed were particulate matter and NO2, while the success factors for effective air quality planning were also discussed.
Air pollution remains a serious problem in many European regions and cities with severe effects on health and quality of life of their citizens. According to Directive 2008/50/EC on ambient air quality, Air Quality Plans should help to improve the air quality in zones or agglomerations where the levels of pollutants in ambient air exceed limit or target values.
