Who We Are
Klinair is a student-led social initiative founded by high school students from ACS Jakarta, focused on promoting healthier indoor environments through accessible air-cleaning solutions. The project centers around the development and distribution of a simple, low-cost air purifier known as the CR-Box—a DIY filtration system that has been proven effective in improving indoor air quality.
​
Our Mission
​
Klinair’s mission is to raise awareness about the often-overlooked dangers of indoor air pollution and to educate communities on practical ways to address it. Through workshops, campaigns, and hands-on guidance, our team introduces students and schools to the assembly and function of CR-Boxes, empowering them to take action in safeguarding their own air quality.
​
As part of its outreach efforts, Klinair aims to donate CR-Boxes to schools and communities in need, helping create cleaner and healthier learning environments. By combining education, innovation, and social impact, Klinair aspires to inspire a generation that is more informed and proactive about the air they breathe.
Our Activities
At Klinair, we are committed to turning awareness into action by engaging directly with communities and schools. Our activities are designed to educate, collaborate, and create meaningful impact in improving indoor air quality.
​
We have visited more than 40 schools, conducting interactive sessions to raise awareness about the importance of clean air in classrooms. Through these visits, we introduce students and educators to the risks of indoor air pollution and share practical solutions to create healthier learning environments.
​
Collaboration is at the heart of our initiative. We have partnered with organizations such as Bicara Udara, Biru School Alliance, and Youth Health Hub Indonesia to expand our reach and strengthen our impact. These partnerships allow us to combine expertise, resources, and networks to advocate more effectively for better air quality.
​
In addition to education and advocacy, we take direct action by donating simple air filtration systems (CR-Boxes) to schools in need. Through these donations, we aim to provide immediate, tangible improvements to indoor air quality, helping students learn and thrive in a cleaner, healthier environment.
Meet The Team
Originally established by our seniors, we are the next generation team carrying the project forward. We honor their foundation by scaling the initiative, broadening education efforts and bringing air filtration devices, not only to under-resourced schools, but a wider range of communities.
