Nanotechnology and workers: thoughts, struggles and perspectives-March 18 in Sao Paulo.
In 2007, the Fundacentro began the debate on the impacts of nanotechnology on health of workers and the environment.
From there to here were various forms of institutional performance, contributing with lectures in national and international events, publications, comics, podcast and others.
Considered emerging technology, nanotechnology is considered an imminent risk and little is known about its effects on workers ‘ health and on the environment.
Used in research, development and innovation, nanotechnology is present in consumer products, such as clothes that don’t stain-resistant fabrics, kneading and water, camouflage clothing, cosmetics, creams, medicines, dental materials, lighter materials and more resistant than metals and plastics, to buildings, automobiles, airplanes.
To make a reflection after 10 years of operation, the Fundacentro coordinates on 26 March, in conjunction with the RENANOSOMA, (network of Nanotechnology research, society and the environment), the event.
Coordinated by the Nanotecnologia and workers: Reflections, Fights and Prospects – March 18 in Sao Paulo.
In 2007, Fundacentro began the discussion About The impacts of nanotechnology on the health of workers and no Environment. Since then there were various forms of institutional performance, contributing lectures at national and international events, publications, comics, podcast and others.
Considered emerging technology, nanotechnology is considered an imminent risk and little is known about its effects on workers’ health and the environment.
Used in research activities, development and innovation, nanotechnology is present in consumer products such as clothing that does not crumple, resistant fabrics stain and water, camouflage clothing, cosmetics, creams, medicines, dental materials, lighter materials and more resistant than metals and plastics, buildings, cars, airplanes.
To make a reflection after 10 years of operation, the Fundacentro coordinates on 26 March, together with the RENANOSOMA (Research Network in Nanotechnology, Society and Environment), the event.
Coordinated by the researcher Fundacentro, Arline Arcuri, will be present, Paulo Martins (coordinator of RENANOSOMA), Thomaz Jensen (DIEESE), Luiz Carlos de Oliveira (Metalworkers Union of São Paulo), Mauro Soares (Metalworkers Union of São Bernardo do Campo ), Gilberto Almazan (DIESAT).
It will be a discussion with consecutive transmission to Tunis, capital of Tunisia, a country that hosts the World Social Forum, where researchers will talk about the impacts and changes in the industry.
Mauricio Berger, a researcher at the University of Córdoba, participates in the World Social Forum of Science and Democracy and will be the mediator between the international event and Fundacentro.
The free event will be held in rooms 7 and 8 at the headquarters of Fundacentro in SP, the 8:0 at 1:0 pm with videoconference broadcast to other States where the entity has headquarters, as well as for external users who want to participate in the workshop. The conferences will be in Portuguese with consecutive translation into English.
The subject nanotechnology is part of the project on the impact of nanotechnology on the health of workers and the environment Fundacentro.
