The goal of this Assessment is to support decision-making for development that can improve the health and wellbeing of Africa’s people and at the same time avoid exacerbating air pollution and increasing GHGs and SLCPs emissions that were typical of Asia, Europe and North America as they industrialized. The Integrated Assessment of Air Pollution and Climate Change for Sustainable Development in Africa provides an analysis of the state, trends, and outlook relevant to thematic areas prioritized by countries under the UNFCCC and regional air quality agreements. It is also relevant to regionally agreed development goals (AUC 2015a) and suggests regionally tailored means of delivering those goals that have implications for air pollution and climate change impacts. The Assessment is made up of five distinct but closely linked chapters.
