Air quality remains a key concern in Serbia as the entire population lives in areas where levels of fine particulate matter (PM2.5) exceed the World Health Organization (WHO) annual guideline value of 5 micrograms per cubic meter (μg/m3). The country’s annual average PM2.5 exposure in 2019 stood at 25.4 μg/m3, following a 26% drop from 2010 levels.
The new State of Global Air factsheet titled Air Pollution and Health in Serbia is based off of SoGA’s report Trends in Air Quality and Health in the Republic of Serbia and offers insights into the health effects of air pollution, including impacts on air quality, exposure to pollutants, major pollution sources, and additional information.
