Youth for Clean
Air:
As part of providing resource materials support to youth,
CEE, the SAYEN Secretariat is developing an information material
package “Youth for Clean Air (YCA)”, a project jointly conducted by
SAYEN and UNEP.
This information package is being developed as part of the
larger programme being implemented in
South Asia, “Male` Declaration on Control and Prevention of Air
Pollution and its Likely Transboundary Effects for South
Asia”, by UNEP,
Environment Ministries and Pollution control authorities. The
package includes two publications:
-
A printed
documented for youth on air
-
An Interactive CD
for youth on air
The process for developing the package started with a two-day
Inception Workshop, organized at
Bangalore
attended by
selected 6 youth from the South Asian Countries, representatives
from CEE and UNEP. The content outline was developed and structure
for both publications was finalized. It was decided to have two
sections in each of the publications. Section A to focus on basic
information related to Air Pollution including sources and impacts.
Section B to focus on the mitigation measures at various levels -
individual and collective efforts and efforts at local, regional,
government and global levels.
The draft of
the document was further designed at CEE. The comments and
suggestions from the Regional Stakeholders meeting were incorporated
into the printed document and again shared with UNEP for approval.
