Understanding Air Pollution in Amager, Copenhagen and its Effects on the School-Aged Population
Air pollution poses a serious threat to children. Our sponsor Miljøpunkt Amager enlisted our help in identifying the health risks of air pollution experienced by children at the Kalvebod Fælled Skole in Copenhagen, Denmark. Our team explored potential strategies for reducing air pollution levels through archival research, data collection, interviews, and surveys. Using this information, we developed a set of recommendations for Miljøpunkt Amager.
