Overview

Air and water pollution refers to the contamination of atmospheric and aquatic environments by harmful substances that pose risks to human health, ecosystems, and infrastructure. Research published in Air and Water Borne Diseases addresses multiple dimensions of this topic, including the environmental and public health consequences of industrial effluents, municipal strategies for managing waterborne disease risks, and workplace safety training approaches that support community health protection. Studies have examined specific pollution sources such as cassava mill effluents and their impacts in affected regions, while other work has focused on developing decision-making frameworks that enable local governments to combat waterborne diseases through evidence-based management tools. The journal also publishes research on health outcomes in populations potentially exposed to environmental stressors, contributing to understanding of how pollution-related factors may intersect with disease prevalence. This body of work matters because air and water pollution remain leading environmental health threats globally, requiring integrated approaches that span industrial practices, municipal governance, public health surveillance, and community-level prevention strategies to protect vulnerable populations and reduce disease burden.
