The International Society for Respiratory Protection

WHWB February Teleconference

Workplace Health Without Borders plans to resume regular teleconferences featuring interesting presentations and engaging discussions. 

Their next meeting, on February 10 at 10:00 a.m Eastern Standard Time, they will be launching a series to explore what was learned from the COVID-19 pandemic and how it can be used to work towards positive change. 
 
Speakers on February 10  will be two WHWB Board members  – Marianne Levitsky and Claudina Nogueira.  Backgrounds are available here.
 
Claudina and Marianne plan to talk about what was learned from COVID-19 and where to go from here.  The talk will include the “without borders” perspective along a number of dimensions – geographical, professional, socio-economic.  They will address multi-disciplinary collaboration that has led to better understanding of how COVID-19 is transmitted and appropriate control measures like ventilation and respiratory protection.  Claudina will share a global perspective as Vice-President of the International Commission on Occupational Health (ICOH), and they will also talk about the inequities of COVID-19 and how they can address them.  The presentations will be followed by a discussion session.

In subsequent teleconferences this year they will invite other speakers to reflect on these and similar themes.

Please join WCWB at 10:00 a.m. EST on February 10;  RSVP here.  Log-in details are below.  Check your local time here.
