Projects

The creation and institutionalization of technical air quality standards, with technical support provided by Blacksmith, have made possible quantified monitoring of the human health impact of air pollution in Cambodia. This means that it is now also possible to improve air pollution conditions based on sound science. From this point on, local regulatory agencies, government, and industries must work together to perform the necessary reporting and inventory measures. With appropriately trained experts enforcing Cambodia’s new air pollution standards, public health conditions in that nation should improve significantly.
