  • Real-time impacts of air pollution on the health, well-being, and daily life of children and young people in Delhi and Dhaka

    Open AccessConstance Bwire, Gabrielle Bonnet et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2026

    Air pollution is a major global health threat, with children and young people (CYP) among the most vulnerable. Delhi (India) and Dhaka (Bangladesh) are two of the world’s most polluted cities, with persistently high levels of fine particulate matter (PM 2.5 ). This study aimed to generate CYP-centered evidence on the real-time impacts of air pollution in these cities by comparing health, well-being, and daily activities during periods of high air…

  • Assessing the impact of Covid-19 on nurturing care in Nairobi slums

    Open AccessRobert C Hughes, Silas Onyango et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2025

    The Covid-19 pandemic and mitigation measures had widespread societal impacts. Young children are particularly vulnerable yet the ways the pandemic affected children in informal settlements (slums) are not well described. This study aimed to investigate the impacts of the pandemic on early childhood in three Nairobi informal settlements. Five rounds of cross-sectional computer assisted telephone surveys (with 578–774 respondents in each) in three…

  • Living through the heat

    Open AccessConstance Bwire, Rachel Juel et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2025

    Climate change is driving more frequent and intense heatwaves, posing growing risks to urban populations, particularly children and young people (CYP). This study examined how heatwaves affect the health, well-being, and daily lives of CYP across six rapidly urbanising cities: Accra, Kumasi, Ouagadougou, Port Harcourt, Manila, and Dar es Salaam. We conducted online surveys during both heatwave and non-heatwave periods, collecting 2,269 valid resp…

  • Let’s just ask them. Perspectives on urban dwelling and air quality

    Open AccessRachel Juel, Sarah Sharpe et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2023

    This research aimed to capture and synthesise the views of children, young people, parents and expectant parents (CYPP) about the cities where they live, with a specific focus on air pollution (AP), in order to support the generation of evidence-informed policy that reflects CYPP’s perspectives, ultimately contributing to the development of child-centered, healthier, sustainable cities. The Children, Cities and Climate (CCC) project used targeted…
