Organisation and Objectives
CASANZ was founded in 1967 and has branches in five Australian States, the Australian Capital Territory and New Zealand. It was incorporated in the State of New South Wales under the NSW Associations Incorporation Act 1984 on 21 November 1991. The Clean Air Society’s main objective is to advance the knowledge and practical experience of environmental and air quality management and thus to provide an organisation which will gather, collate and distribute this experience and knowledge to its members and to the general community. CASANZ has 850 members who are drawn from industry, local government, state and federal government authorities and educational institutions. CASANZ hosted the 7th World Clean Air Congress in 1986 in Sydney and also the 14th World Congress in Brisbane in September 2007.
