Mumbai Clean Air Initiative
Full time · 3.5-month engagement | Mid August to November 2026 | Apply by 23 August 2026

Bodhi Sangha, WISE and Blue Ribbon Movement are joining forces with the local ecosystem in Mumbai to address the issues related to air quality and how they are reflected locally, both as challenges and responses. Through this pilot, we focus on creating the conditions for a multi-stakeholder ecosystem to emerge, brought together by the vision of the Mumbai Clean Air Initiative.

To support our initial efforts, we are looking for an expert Project Manager who can offer the right mix of coordination, communication and organisational skills, and act as a connective tissue between people, ideas and execution. If we are a good match, there is a possibility to continue our collaboration beyond the first 3 months.

About the Initiative
Mumbai’s air quality is influenced by multiple, interconnected sources including transport, construction, industry, waste, and urban development, making it difficult to address through isolated interventions. At the same time,



people and communities are already experiencing the health and livelihood impacts of poor air quality, creating a need for informed relief and protective responses in the near term.
This work therefore begins by strengthening understanding of where exposure and vulnerability are concentrated, what is already being done, and where immediate relief can be most useful. A systemic lens is important so that relief efforts are not developed separately from the wider conditions that produce and sustain air pollution. Over time, the learning, relationships, and evidence generated through this work can help identify leverage points for deeper transition across systems, institutions, and practices. The intention is therefore to begin with practical, informed relief while gradually building the knowledge and collective capacity needed to contribute to longer-term transition in Mumbai.
