About the Challenge
The United Nations African Regional Centre for Space Science and Technology Education in partnership with the Societal Value of Quality Low-Cost Urban Air Monitoring in Low Resource Environments (SQUARE); Nigerian Institution of Environmental Engineers; and Nigerian Society of Engineers, Manchester Branch, UK, is co-organizing a competitive workshop which is aimed at developing low-cost air quality sensors and thus proffer solutions to measurement of air pollution.
The challenge will bring together innovative and dedicated great minds within Nigerian higher institutions and research establishments to develop low-cost air quality sensors.
The sensor should capture at least one pollutant.
Participants shall include researchers, innovators, start-ups or any individuals with the required skill desired in the team.
