Aether at the Task Force on International Cooperation on Air Pollution

16 February 2024

Chris Dore and Annie Thornton were in Geneva this week to attend the Task Force on International Cooperation on Air Pollution. The meeting brought together groups from the UN/ECE’s Air Convention as well as representatives from NGOs and international organisations. The Forum aims to facilitate international exchange of information and mutual learning on both the scientific/technical and policy levels and complement ongoing efforts by making the UNECE Air Conventions 45 years of experience, tools, methods and expertise available also to other regions, countries and organizations.

It was a great opportunity to hear about the huge range of capacity building activities and initiatives taking place, and to discuss how groups within the Convention can contribute to ongoing efforts to improve global air quality through close collaboration.

Chris and Annie represented the Task Force on Emissions Inventories and Projections (TFEIP). Please see here for more on Aether’s work on the TFEIP.

Testimonial

Don't just take our word for it...

“ If we have a need for any more reports in the future Aether will be first on my list. ”

Alan Hardy, Kyson Design

“ From their winning bid to final delivery, Aether's work with North Norfolk District Council was positive and thorough. They brought a clear understanding of the challenges local authorities face regarding carbon emissions and quickly understood the unique nature of the Coastwise project. Communication was effective, and the outcomes combined a depth of research with real-world utility for the council's activities around carbon emissions and mitigation. ”

Alastair Zangs, North Norfolk District Council

“ The support provided by Aether for this project was especially remarkable considering the situation of the COVID-19 pandemic. The tools and methods used in order to engage local stakeholders really added value to the capacity building of the national team. ”

Shanna Emmanuel, Saint Lucia BUR Project Coordinator

“ The professional service provided by your company was of very high quality and completed within agreed timelines. ”

Matthew Dudley, UNFCCC Secretariat

“ I must congratulate each of you for your professional and tireless efforts. Let me point out that this has been the 'neatest' in-country review expert review team I have coordinated, and it has been a real pleasure. ”

UNFCCC Secretariat

“ Saint Lucia embraces the professional approach with which this project was undertaken by Aether, particularly their ability to develop mentorship relations with local government experts. This provides a basis for ensuring that the pool of local experts remain engaged and recognized over successive processes. ”
