The history of SHERO started with an idea shared by some researchers to create a non-governmental organization to foster research mainly in the area of environment, health and safety. This idea took shape in 1997 and some meetings happened with the presence of some scientists and so SHERO - Safety, Health and Environment Research Organization became a reality in October 1999.
Upon its founding, was the first name of the Nucleus for Environmental Researches (NPABS), then moved to Brazilian Nucleus of Environmental Researches and Health (NBPAS) and later for Organization of Research in Environment, Health and Safety (OPASS) and later for Safety, Health and Environment Research Organization (SHERO).
Since its founding, SHERO has sought to act in various areas of knowledge aimed at environmental preservation and improvement of quality of life. |
