1. Introduction<\/mark><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The “HumekaNeza” campaign, meaning “Breathe Easy,” is a comprehensive initiative addressing air quality concerns within school communities. By focusing on education, creativity, child participation, and community engagement, this campaign seeks to empower individuals, particularly children, to become informed advocates for clean air and environmental stewardship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The educational outreach engages schoolchildren with hands-on experience with scientific tools and STEM (science-technology-engineering-math) education to address the air pollution problem and help school pupils become effective agents for improved air quality. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Air Pollution Game:<\/mark><\/strong> Engaging schoolchildren as citizen scientists, playing a game with Q&A questions and answers on air pollution to teach them about air quality parameters, monitoring tools, and scientific methodologies.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
