This K4DD Rapid Evidence Review collates available evidence on determinants of personal exposure to air pollution.
The review draws upon an expanding and strong evidence base that includes academic and grey literature. The evidence base is extensive, identifying clear links between exposure and health outcomes covering an increasing range of countries. The review notes that a number of interventions are possible at the individual and household level but that community‑ and systems‑level interventions are crucial to reducing population exposure to air pollution by targeting the structural drivers of poor air quality rather than relying solely on individual behaviour change.
