  Despite the well-described cardiovascular effects of exposure to air pollution, there is still limited evidence of the effectiveness of behavioural change intervention to reduce exposure to air pollution in countries like Nigeria. The aim of the CARDINAL study is to develop and implement a community-based behavioural change intervention focused on reducing exposure to air pollution and the associated CVDs risk factor reduction. The CARDINAL study is a pre-post intervention design involving a baseline assessment, a community-wide intervention assessment, and an end-of-study assessment in selected communities of Ibadan North Local Government Area, Nigeria. The study population will comprise vulnerable populations of 300 commercial transport workers, 300 women of reproductive age exposed to indoor burning of solid fuels, and 100 healthcare providers.
