Joint Indoor Air Quality Manifesto launched
E
urovent said in a statement on 10 June 2024: “Together with the co-signatories, we highlight the critical importance of indoor air quality for our health, for our economy and for our future generations. “As the European Parliament and Commission enter into a new mandate this year, we must not forget that the need for good air quality does not stop at our doorstep, but also includes the air we breathe indoors – where we spend 90% of our daily lives.
“Therefore, we call for greater political attention and legislative action to ensure that indoor air quality (IAQ) receives the recognition and resources it deserves. The manifesto outlines how IAQ considerations could be integrated into the
European policy framework, ensuring that future policies prioritise the health and comfort of people living, working and studying in Europe’s buildings”
The manifesto calls on European policymakers to: • make ‘access to good quality air’ (including indoor air) a basic human right by bringing the adaptations needed to the European Treaties and Charter of Fundamental Rights if needed
• give equal (high) consideration to ‘indoor air quality’ as to ‘ambient air quality’ in the adoption of new and revised EU policies
•
operate a screening of all EU policies fi t for improved measures towards good indoor air
