The air people breathe should not be a matter of luck.
We believe that clean air; indoors and outdoors, is fundamental to the health, safety and wellbeing of every community. Clean Air Network brings policymakers, riders, scientists and financiers into one shared transition agenda, and moves money towards clean energy and electric mobility.

WHO WE ARE
We Are Making the Air We Breathe Safer
Clean Air Network is a Ugandan NGO working on the air people actually breathe. We bring scientists, lawyers, activists, educators and ordinary citizens into one movement for cleaner air and safer transport.
Through research, public education and sustained advocacy, we shift policy —and shift finance — towards clean household energy and electric mobility.
Indoor Air
Cooking and lighting smoke puts a health risk in the kitchen every single day. We make the case for clean energy at home — and for the finance that puts it there.
Outdoor Air
Traffic, dust and polluting fuels are what Kampala's streets are breathing. We push for cleaner transport, cleaner fuels and the evidence to prove the difference.

We measure the air, so no one has to guess what they are breathing. We convene, so no one has to fix it alone. We advocate, so that clean air stops being an aspiration and becomes the ordinary condition of life in Uganda.
Why Choose Us
How Uganda Makes the Transition — and How We Help
Two halves of one change: retiring polluting fuels
and fossil-fuel vehicles, and scaling clean energy
and electric mobility.
Phasing out polluting fuels
Diesel, petrol, charcoal and kerosene keep pollution in our homes and on our streets. Every litre and every sack replaced is a health gain.
Scaling up clean energy
Electric mobility and clean household energy cut emissions exactly where Ugandans live, work and travel.
How It Works
Three Pillars, One Shared Transition Agenda
Everything we do rests on three pillars —convening, finance and public awareness —reinforced by research, public education and policy
advocacy.
