Equal Air Collaborative

Equitable access to clean air
Air quality is declining, and access to clean air is far from guaranteed. Without urgent action, more communities will face health risks, environmental damage, and economic loss. Businesses have a critical role to play in reversing this trend.
To address this challenge, Coupa and NationSwell launched the Equal Air Collaborative to bring together leaders across sectors to champion solutions that protect our natural resources, ensure safety across communities, and help build a thriving economy.

About our partnership with Coupa
Coupa makes margins multiply through its community-generated AI and industry leading total spend management platform for businesses large and small. And Coupa is leading the way on corporate innovation on air quality: in 2022, in partnership with Earth Watch, Sustainable Silicon Valley, and Yale School of Public Health, Coupa launched the Equal Air Project. Coupa volunteers placed low-cost air sensors across the San Francisco Bay Area to test and monitor air quality. The Yale School of Public Health monitored and analyzed data across two months to better understand local level exposures. The results proved that the quality of air we breathe differs dramatically by zip code.
By joining Coupa and NationSwell in the Equal Air Collaborative, you’ll help shape the vision, guide the conversation, and elevate solutions that protect clean air and strengthen communities. Together, we’ll turn shared commitment into real-world impact.
