In the recent update of the WHO Air Quality Guidelines, development of guidelines specific for indoor air quality was recommended by the working group. In response to this recommendation, WHO European Center for Environment and Health organized a planning meeting of international experts in October 23-24, 2006, in Bonn, Germany, with the objective to discuss the role of WHO Guidelines in reduction of health risks due to pollution of indoor air, and to agree on the recommended scope and format of the WHO Guidelines for IAQ. The meeting was also requested to recommend the background material to be developed before the Guidelines are formulated as well as to discuss the most efficient organization of the process. The meeting gathered 38 experts.
