Last week was pretty wild. I had the unbelievable opportunity to speak at the UN Headquarters during #UNGA on why indoor air quality is an accessibility and inclusion issue for people living with chronic health conditions.

An excellent article by Amanda Kvalsvig and Anna-Maria Arabia, with contribution by Dr Bronwyn King AO, highlighting the reasons that indoor air quality matters more than ever, and how to translate the evidence into meaningful action.

📢 We spend 90% of our time indoors, but poor indoor air quality in public spaces is putting millions of Australians at risk - especially those with chronic illness.
