Project Summary<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Accessible Air in the Built Environment<\/strong> is a national research project led by ASEQ-EHAQ and funded by Accessibility Standards Canada. Using air quality testing, focus groups, and product evaluations, the study explores how indoor air quality, particularly exposure to fragranced and other products, creates accessibility barriers to the built environment for individuals with multiple chemical sensitivity (MCS) and other disabilities. The study furthermore aims to assess the effectiveness of scent-free policies in improving indoor air quality in public spaces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
