The overall objective is to understand the differentiated impacts of air pollution on the world of work in East and Southeast Asian countries, and to identify evidence-based recommendations from regional case studies, to improve air quality and the quality and quantity of employment in a context of just transitions towards a low carbon economy.
As a result, they will add to the evidence base needed by policy makers, employers and labour organisations and practitioners working in the environment, labour and health sectors to mitigate the ‘gendered’ impacts of air pollution in work.
Funding Information
Total funds available are up to 400,000 Swedish Krona (SEK) per country.
A total of three projects will be funded.
Outcomes
The project will produce knowledge that can be used by policy makers, employers’ and workers’ organisations, and civil society, at the intersection of labour, environment and health. It will help to ensure that ‘gendering’ effects of any measures that are applied are fully accounted for in decision-making.
Through active participation and capacity building, they will also raise the awareness of employers’ and workers’ groups and other civil society organisations working on air quality and labour rights about the need to consider air quality in the context of work, and identify potential solutions that also create employment opportunities, working in collaboration with local organisations in the case study countries.

Preferred Lead
Proposals may be submitted by a single organisation or consortium. If a consortium, the proposal should be led by one lead institution (the contracting party) who will be responsible for the administration of the project and its budget. The roles of each consortium member should also be specified in the proposal. The lead institution must remain in regular liaison with SEI.
Preference will be given to applicants or consortium already based in the proposed country of study to avoid any unnecessary delays due to international travel restrictions arising from the COVID situation.
