What is SINPHONIE?

The SINPHONIE project (Schools Indoor Pollution and Health: Observatory Network in Europe) is a complex research project covering the areas of health, environment, transport and climate change and aimed at improving air quality in schools and kindergartens. The project is implemented under a European Commission service contract (DG Sanco, Health and Consumer Protection Directorate).

Thirty-eight environment and health institutions from 25 countries are participating in the SINPHONIE research project in order to implement Regional Priority Goal III (RPG3) of the Childrenís Environment and Health Action Plan for Europe (CEHAPE), which is to prevent and reduce respiratory disease due to outdoor and indoor air pollution.

The SINPHONIE project is an example of the practical implementation of the EU Environment and Health Action Plan.
