HAPINZ 3.0

These webpages give the key findings from the Health and Air Pollution in New Zealand 2016 study (HAPINZ 3.0).  This study assessed the health impacts of air pollution in New Zealand for 2016. 

HAPINZ 3.0 was carried out by a team of researchers from several organizations, led by Dr Gerda Kuschel (Emission Impossible Ltd). The results were published in July 2022.

In November 2023, the HAPINZ team was awarded the Clean Air Achievement Award 2023 by the NZ Branch of the Clean Air Society of Australia and New Zealand (CASANZ).  This award recognised the HAPINZ team for making a significant contribution to achieving improvements in the quality of the air environment.
