Prepared by Kaye Patdu, May Ajero, Alvin Mejia, CAI-Asia Center

While information and knowledge on air quality management are increasingly generated in Asia, they are fragmented in different documents and websites. To ensure that decision-makers have better access to knowledge on clean air management that can assist in policy development, CAI-Asia has been releasing publications and presentations that provide a comprehensive and comparative assessment of the status and challenges of air quality management in Asia.

Starting with only 20 cities in 2003, CAI-Asia now has compiled information on air quality and pollutant levels from over 200 Asian cities.


“Air Quality in Asia: Status and Trends, 2010 edition” is the most recent version of CAI-Asia's assessment of the status and challenges of air quality management in Asia.

This publication is composed of two parts:

1. Status and Trends of Air Quality

-provides a snapshot of air quality levels in 2008 and trends of air quality from 1993 to 2008.

2. Status of Air Quality Standards

-provides an overview of the ambient air quality standards adopted by developing Asian countries.
