Dr Whittaker’s keynote address will focus on how addressing indoor air quality is essential to creating healthier and safer spaces across all sectors, including government, private businesses, and community buildings. Through his wealth of experience, Dr Whittaker will highlight how improving indoor air quality directly supports public health initiatives and ties into the broader framework of the Sustainable Island State Agenda in Saint Kitts and Nevis.
