Purpose:
The multi-disciplinary Clean Air team at CEEW generates data and evidence to drive scalable action
and strengthen the capacity of governments and industries through institutional collaborations
towards improving India’s air quality. The CA team works across seven different verticals: crop
residue management, clean cooking, solid waste management, industrial pollution management,
clean construction, air quality governance, and air quality data analytics & forecasting. The team’s
research work is supported by five levers of change: building the capacity of government agencies,
generating transparent and credible data, developing innovative solutions, demonstrating industrial
leadership, and raising public demand for clean air.
The CA team seeks to hire a seasoned expert as a Senior Programme Lead to build and expand our work on air quality governance and data analytics at the national, state, and city levels. The
