The Clean Air Forum Lagos 2024 has entered its second day at Sheraton Hotel, Ikeja, with Dr. Babatunde Ajayi, General Manager of LASEPA with senior management staff of the agency in attendance.

The 5- event, organized by AirQo, Makerere University; AQMRG, University of Lagos, and LASEPA has brought together a diverse group of over 300 air quality stakeholders from 40 cities across 40 countries to tackle the pressing issue of air pollution in Africa.

As the forum progresses, academia and policymakers have taken the stage to deliver presentations, highlighting innovative solutions to combat air pollution in Africa. The presentations have covered a range of topics, including the use of technology in air quality management, sustainable transportation solutions, and community-led initiatives to reduce air pollution.

One key focus emerging from the presentations is the importance of leveraging technology to address air pollution. Several speakers have highlighted the potentials of technologies such as sensor networks, data analytics, and artificial intelligence to monitor and manage air quality in real-time. For example, one presentation showcased a low-cost sensor network developed by a local University that can provide real-time air quality data to citizens.

Another focus that has emerged is the need for sustainable transportation solutions. Several speakers have emphasized the importance of promoting cleaner fuels, improving public transportation. One presentation highlighted a successful pilot project that introduced electric buses,CNG buses into a city's public transportation system, resulting in significant reductions in air pollution.
