Project description
Societal engagement for air and noise mitigation actions
Air and noise pollution in Europe exceed safe limits, impacting public health, especially vulnerable groups. Reducing pollution improves health and lowers carbon emissions. Effective solutions require collaboration between cities and citizens. The EU-funded ATMOPOLIS project aims to identify effective solutions and support both top-down (city/region) and bottom-up (community/individual) actions. It will analyse long-term exposure to pollution, particularly for vulnerable groups, linking it to their perceptions and behaviours, and model population data on air pollution and carbon emissions in participating cities. New metrics for noise pollution will be developed using community data. The project will develop a decision-making tool to support policy actions. It will also leverage digital platforms to encourage community involvement.
Objective
Air and noise pollution regularly exceed recommended limits in Europe, with significant public health burdens, particularly for the vulnerable. Reducing pollution not only benefits population health but can have co-benefits for reducing carbon emissions and mitigating climate change. Urban pollution is a complex challenge requiring integrative solutions that combine comparative evidence of the impact of measures on pollution reduction and health, with an understanding of their social and economic, and systemic implications. Ambitious change will require that solutions and actions across multiple scales (city/citizens).
ATMOPOLIS addresses the combined effects of air and noise pollution in European cities, identifying optimal solutions and supporting top-down (city/region) and bottom-up (community/people) action to achieve aligned pollution and climate mitigation goals. The project will:
1)Assess time-integrated monitored air and noise pollution exposure for specific individual groups, linked to their perceptions, culture, and behavior through personal narratives.
2)Model high-resolution population air pollution and carbon emissions (EU Mission and Green City Accord cities) and derive novel metrics of population noise pollution from community data and models (ATMOPOLIS partner cities) under existing and mitigation scenarios.
3)Evaluate health and wellbeing impacts of exposure under these scenarios, including for vulnerable groups, and identify the social determinants that increase risk.
4)Develop an evidence-driven integrated decision-making tool that identifies optimal cost-effective top-down policy actions by cities; and use persuasive design approaches to leverage emerging digital pollution platforms to support bottom-up change and empowerment.
5)Using system dynamics models and the integrated tool as a framework, co-create with cities informed policy pathways to meet zero pollution and carbon neutrality goals and improve population health and wellbeing for all.

Net EU financial contribution. The sum of money that the participant receives, deducted by the EU contribution to its linked third party. It considers the distribution of the EU financial contribution between direct beneficiaries of the project and other types of participants, like third-party participants.
