Air Quality Mapping

The Community Walks & AQI Monitoring Exercise is a comprehensive initiative undertaken by the Walking Project over several months to raise awareness and gather data with the ultimate objective of enhancing walkability and air quality in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region. From December 2023 to May 2024, Walking Project collaborated with Asar Social Impact Advisors to integrate air quality monitoring and awareness into the Community Walks exercise that Walking Project conducts. This expansion aimed to familiarize participants with the Mumbai Air Pollution Mitigation Plan, air quality metrics, benchmarks for good air quality, and Mumbai's standing relative to global counterparts.
