Welcome to World Asbestos Report. We have established this website to provide an online resource center for all those working around the world to

• ban future use of asbestos;
• improve working conditions for those who continue to be exposed to asbestos on the job;
• reduce exposures to those who live or work in the vicinity of others using asbestos;
• encourage progress in the diagnosis and treatment of asbestos-related diseases, particularly mesothelioma, lung cancer and asbestosis;
• otherwise help all those seeking to protect and vindicate the rights of asbestos victims throughout the world.

Kazan Law is a proud Silver Sponsor of IMIG Congress 2008.

IMIG 2008, the 9th International Conference of the International Mesothelioma Interest Group, will take place in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, Europe from September 25-27, 2008. The Netherlands Cancer Institute/Antoni van Leeuwenhoek Hospital will organize this event and is proud of it.

We have been active in the fight against asbestos since 1974 and have long supported the international efforts to ban asbestos.

We published the Annals of the Global Asbestos Congresses held in Osasco, Brazil in 2000 and in Tokyo in 2004. These were made available on cd-rom at the time and now we make them instantly available to all.

We invite submission of materials from any other relevant seminars or meetings, other articles or presentations, monographs, or other relevant original work. We will include submissions in any language but would appreciate at least the preparation of English abstracts where full translations are not available. Please send to articles@worldasbestosreport.org.

We also offer a worldwide calendar on which to list planned relevant meetings, seminars, or conventions. Please send to events@worldasbestosreport.org. This online resource and archive of the best and most relevant information is freely and continuously available to all. Use it well and tell us how to make it better. We welcome your comments, suggestions and submissions.
