K-HEALTHinAIR main goals can be summarized as follows:
• Carry out a full characterization of indoor air quality in the selected scenarios
• Evaluate the information collected and identify the determinants of people’s health in each of the scenarios
• Research the sources of the main determinants for each scenario and propose solutions to improve the healthiness of the environments
• Improve user-level monitoring solutions, make them more friendly and develop new applications basing on the information collected
• Identify relevant stakeholders in Europe and beyond and select the most suitable means of communication, dissemination and engagement for each mapped group
• Address the sustainability of the project’ results to assure the continuity and scale up of its long-term effects.
In K-HEALTHinAIR, Global Health Connector will lead the work strand related to the project’s communication, dissemination and exploitation of the results. As such, Global Health Connector will design the strategy and actions for raising awareness on the K-HEALTHinAIR’ achievements with a view to achieve their sustainability beyond the project’s funding period. To foster the acceptance of innovation, greater effort will be devoted to the translation and communication of project’s results and outputs making them accessible and understandable by the society at large. Within the K-HEALTHinAIR project’s management team, Global Health Connector will cover the role of the Dissemination and Communication Manager.
