Air pollution and health training toolkit for health workers (APHT)

Overview
This module will examine household air pollution and its main health effects, safety and social impacts. It will also discuss the impacts of household air pollution on the environment, climate change and poverty as well as discuss risk perception. It will provide a global snap on access to clean fuel and technologies at the household level.
The APHT toolkit for health workers is a comprehensive set of training materials covering air pollution and health topics while addressing global and regional challenges. It is designed for various audiences and health sector roles, equipping health workers with knowledge and tools to understand and mitigate air pollution risks. The toolkit helps them engage with patients, individuals, and communities while advocating for clean air interventions. Built around the train-the-trainer (TtT) concept, APHT enables trainees to become trainers and educate their peers and communities.
