The Pneumoconiosis Observatory of the Americas
GLOBATIUM© spoke with Dr. Diemen Delgado García, who, before introducing us to each of his colleagues and collaborators, gave a brief review of the work carried out in the first month of his management at the head of the Pneumoconiosis Observatory of the Americas.
« I can inform you with great joy that in the first month of work we managed to socialize the existence of the observatory in academic events of great magnitude: on November 15 in Lima Peru, the II Herediano Congress of Security, Ergonomics and Medicine, then, two days later, on November 17 in Santiago de Chile, the XVIII Latin American Congress of Occupational Health and I Chilean Congress of Occupational Medicine. On November 25 in Puerto Varas at the 55th Chilean Congress of Respiratory Diseases; On December 1 in Copiapó we held the Regional Tripartite and Intersectoral Silicosis Table of Atacama. In other words, it has been a hectic month, something like a litmus test to see what we are made of and in what directions this ship of experts is taking us," explained Delgado García.
– The year 2023 is not over yet, is there any activity scheduled before the end of the year?
– That's right, in the next few days the agenda will be in Lima on December 15 and 16 at the Peru SAFE Congress Building Political Strategies for a Safe and Sustainable Future in Safety, Health and the Environment. For next year the agenda will be focused on the dissemination of the observatory in Europe where we have been invited by the University of Rome La Sapienza, Università degli Studi di Milano and the University of Barcelona.
«We are a non-governmental organization made up of researchers and academics with recognized experience in the scientific community, open, transparent and proactive, which seeks to warn worldwide of the dangers that pneumoconiogen agents can cause in the lungs and that can harm the health of people. "Human beings, these specialists who accompany me, are leaders in their field, they know what to do and how to act in this matter," said the professional.
