The National Tribal Forum on Air Quality (NTFAQ) aims to support tribal programs by fostering information-sharing and networking opportunities that are focused on building tribal capacity in air quality management. The event’s agenda is driven by tribal input and priorities, with a focus on increasing tribal engagement in air quality initiatives that are relevant to tribal communities across the nation. 

Forum organizers are actively seeking abstracts for presentations, trainings, and other informational sessions that support our goal of providing engaging opportunities for tribes to connect with others working to address air quality concerns. Our attendees seek usable information from real-world examples that discuss practical ideas and solutions, and provide insight into current trends, data, and research impacting tribes working to protect their lands and people. Abstracts should be related to air quality topics relevant to tribal stakeholders.  Forum sponsors are not responsible for issues related to copyright or otherwise protected or culturally sensitive information. Types of presentations include; Lectures, work groups, panels, hands on demonstrations, equipment operation, or poster presentations.
