| Indicator description |
The indicator measures the estimated number of premature deaths in Bosnia and Herzegovina attributable to long-term exposure to fine particulate matter (PM2.5). |
|---|---|
| Data source and methodology |
The indicator enables monitoring of changes in the estimated number of premature deaths associated with long-term exposure to PM2.5 in Bosnia and Herzegovina. |
| Coverage and comparability |
Data for Bosnia and Herzegovina are obtained from the EEA and presented in accordance with the methodology of the EU indicator. Data are available as the total number of premature deaths and as the number of premature deaths per 100,000 inhabitants. For the automatic progress calculation on the portal, the series expressed as the total number of premature deaths is used. Progress is calculated using the compound annual growth rate (CAGR), with 2015 as the base year because data are available for that year. A decrease in the indicator value represents progress. |
| National context and objectives |
Bosnia and Herzegovina has no specific quantitative national long-term target for this indicator. The EU target of reducing the health impacts of air pollution by 55% by 2030 compared with 2005 applies to the EU policy framework and is not treated as a national target for Bosnia and Herzegovina. |

| Indicator description |
The indicator measures the estimated number of premature deaths attributable to long-term exposure to fine particulate matter (PM2.5). The assessment refers to exposure to PM2.5 concentrations above 5 µg/m³. The indicator is expressed as the total number of premature deaths and as the number of premature deaths per 100,000 inhabitants. |
|---|---|
| Data source and methodology |
The indicator monitors the health impacts of long-term exposure to fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and contributes to monitoring progress in reducing the health impacts of air pollution. |
| Coverage and comparability |
The data are produced by the European Environment Agency (EEA). The number of premature deaths is estimated using PM2.5 concentrations and a methodology based on concentration-response functions for assessing the health impacts of exposure. Only the impact of exposure above 5 µg/m³ is estimated. Data are reported annually. |
| EU context and objectives |
Under the EU Zero Pollution Action Plan, the EU has set a target of reducing the health impacts of air pollution by 55% by 2030 compared with 2005. |
