[…] Introduction Air pollution is a major global public health concern and one of the leading risk factors for human health, with its burden on healthcare systems steadily increasing.1,2 According to the World health Organization (WHO), approximately 4.2 million premature deaths in 2019 are attributable to outdoor air pollution worldwide.3Exceedances of air quality standards continue to represent a pe […] […] cant health and social implications, and Italy is still among the country where air pollution levels exceed the WHO guidelines.4In response to the persistent challenge of air pollution and its health impacts, the Italian Ministry of Health launched the project “ATLAS – Air and Health: an integrated Atlas to support decisions and research”. The project aims to develop a national i […] […] uctured into the following sections: Rationale; Narrative description including: description of the area and the main environmental and health critical issues; environmental monitoring and exposure assessment data to be used for the case study; counterfactual/intervention scenario; indicators; Expected results; Actions. Subsequently, an effort was made to identify appropriate indicators accor […]
