The E&T&C Certification Takes Center Stage at OLORES25 in Santiago, Chile

Santiago, Chile- The OLORES25 Congress, held in Santiago, Chile, brought together leading professionals, researchers, and industry representatives from around the world to address the growing challenges of odour management. Organized by the AMIGO Association with the support of Olores.org and other collaborators, this event has become a key meeting point for sharing experiences, technological advances, and regulatory perspectives in the field of environmental odours.

   One of the highlights of the congress was the presentation of the E&T&C certification (Engagement, Transparency & Communication), a pioneering initiative designed to raise professional standards and foster a culture of excellence in odour management. Unlike traditional certifications focused solely on technical knowledge, E&T&C emphasizes the importance of community engagement, transparent data management, and effective communication with all stakeholders involved in odour issues.

   Many attendees expressed their enthusiasm about how E&T&C can help improve odour management practices, especially in urban areas with high population density, where technological solutions must be complemented by active dialogue with communities. Several academic institutions also showed interest in integrating E&T&C principles into their curricula, recognizing the value of a holistic approach that combines technical expertise with social responsibility.

   The introduction of the E&T&C certification at OLORES25 marks a significant step forward for the sector. By building bridges between international experience and local realities, this initiative paves the way for a new era of sustainable, transparent, and inclusive odour management.
