An exhibition aimed at raising awareness toward environment protection and its impact on human health will be held in Shahr-e-Rey in south Tehran in January. The ‘Environment, Health and Safety Expo’, is the first of its kind and organizers hope it will stimulate discussion and encourage more similar and related events. “Issues related to environmental healths are rarely given attention, in spite of its importance,” said Sara Yarahmadi, the event manager, according to Mehr News Agency. The exhibition, organized by the Tehran Municipality District 20, will familiarize the general public with the hazards of environmental degradation and display the latest technological and scientific advancements in the field of environmental health. The eight-day event will be held January 5-12, 2016, at Vela Cultural Center.
