Conference Themes
The Indoor Air 2024 conference will continue the Indoor Air conference series with a multidisciplinary and holistic view on indoor air science. The motto of the conference is “Sustaining the Indoor Air Revolution: Raise Your Impact”.
The world has seen unprecedented interest in improving indoor air quality due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The importance of our indoor environment on human health and well-being has never been more pronounced. Changes implemented in indoor spaces to reduce viral transmission have also had other benefits to our indoor spaces, and it is critical that we work globally to sustain these improvements. One of the biggest challenges to the indoor air community is to leverage the current circumstances to Sustain the Indoor Air Revolution. Thus, the theme of this conference will center around continued improvements in indoor air science and implementation in our buildings.
Overall, the conference will focus on multidisciplinary science to address the emerging challenges with a holistic view of our indoor spaces. Given the existing challenges that have always been of concern, combined with the anticipation of the continuance of heightened awareness and innovative approaches related to addressing infectious disease control, this conference presents a pivotal moment in time for science to merge with practical outcomes for the health and welfare of the population.
History of Indoor Air
Indoor Air is a well established conference series with a science orientation. We attract researchers and other professionals from the fields of indoor air quality, built environments, HVAC, health sciences, public health policy, chemistry, biology, psychology, urban planning, mechanical engineering, architecture, and building design and management to discuss the latest scientific advances and ongoing research in the field. Indoor Air conferences are organized every second year (even years) as international events and gather typically about 600-900 participants, with 800-900 papers presented in oral and poster form. Conferences also serve ISIAQ related side events, such as the Students’ Summer School, meetings of the Scientific Technical Committees, ISIAQ Academy, Board and the Annual General Meeting. The conferences form an important meeting point for personal information exchange between ISIAQ and its members and ISIAQ-members mutually. Conferences are one of the more important membership activities provided by ISIAQ.
History of ISIAQ
The International Society of Indoor Air Quality and Climate, ISIAQ, was founded in 1992 by 109 international scientists and practitioners. It is an international, independent, multidisciplinary, scientific, non-profit organization whose purpose is to support the creation of healthy, comfortable and productivity-encouraging indoor environments.
As a Society, our main objective is to actively promote international and interdisciplinary communication and the exchange of valuable information pertaining to the indoor environment, indoor air, climate, science, and health. We do so by diligently publishing and encouraging the publication of research and studies in the field. Moreover, we take great pride in organizing, sponsoring, and supporting various initiatives like meetings, conferences, and seminars, all dedicated to shedding light on the importance of indoor air quality and climate. In addition, we remain committed to developing, adapting, and maintaining guidelines that serve as a blueprint for enhancing indoor air quality and ensuring a healthy indoor environment. Furthermore, our dedication to this cause extends to our collaboration with government bodies, agencies, and other societies that share a common interest in the well-being of the indoor environment and the impact it has on human health. By working together, we strive to create a cleaner and healthier indoor environment for all.

Remote Track
For those who are not able to join the live, in-person activities in beautiful Hawaii, Indoor Air 2024 is offering a Remote Track. It will include access to all plenaries and one feature track of the in-person conference (streamed live with recording posted afterwards), as well as the opportunity to present a virtual poster and a highly limited number of live fully virtual platform presentations before/after conference hours. We understand that it can’t match the experience of being with your colleagues in the room – and on the beach! – but we hope it will enable those who cannot attend to learn from and share your work with the worldwide community of indoor air quality scientists. This is not a fully hybrid conference, and Remote Track attendees can not present during in-person conference hours. The Remote Track will proceed as planned as long as we have at least 75 registrants by April 1, 2024, so register early if you’re interested.
Key Features of the Remote Track:For attendees looking to catch the insightful plenaries and feature track sessions, we’ve got you covered. All plenaries and one feature track of break-out sessions will be live-streamed, and you’ll have the opportunity to engage with the speakers and moderators by posing your questions in the chat. A selection of these questions will be chosen for live discussion with the presenters.
Present Your Work – Virtual Posters and Presentations:We invite those who can only participate via the Remote Track to share your research and insights with the community. Submit your abstracts or papers for consideration during the normal abstract submission process. Remote participants can submit an extended abstract or paper, and propose to present via a virtual asynchronous poster presentation that includes a short video or during one of the very limited number of virtual platform sessions. The virtual sessions will be scheduled before/after the in-person program and during waking hours for people in different regions of the world. Remote Track attendees will not be able to present during in-person conference hours.
Access to Recorded In-Person Talks:All live-streamed events will also best posted as recording after the event. For those who want to explore a broader range of content, we offer the option to view a subset of recorded in-person talk videos. These recordings are provided by speakers (optionally) who have been invited to share their non-feature track talks on Pheedloop, our conference platform.
Workshops
Workshops are interactive sessions that target specific audiences and promote knowledge transfer, skills development, and collaborative learning among all participants and workshop facilitators. They are designed as opportunities for professional development.
The abstract (up to 250 words) should include a general description and the aim of the proposed session, and additional information including the proposed format and length, target audience, organization of the workshop, and the output/dissemination activities envisioned.
A call for workshop proposals will be released in the fall of 2023.
