  • Valentino Del Fabbro: A Pioneer in the Fight Against Silicosis
    2024/09/02
    On August 11, forty years ago, Dr. Valentino Del Fabbro passed away suddenly. He was a symbolic figure among Belluno’s doctors, deeply committed to tackling silicosis, a disease that claimed the lives of thousands of Belluno miners. He was the father of Law 780, passed on December 27, 1975, which extended compensation for cases of pulmonary silicosis associated with other cardiovascular conditions. This law somehow brought a degree of justice and ended the bureaucratic and welfare nightmare for many poor emigrants, and not only them, who had contracted the terrible disease in mines and tunnels worldwide. The sudden passing of Dr. Del Fabbro caused great emotion and sorrow, not only because of his work in healthcare but also due to his dedication to supporting volunteer work and those less fortunate. Del Fabbro was born in Conegliano on June 25, 1908, and graduated in Medicine from the University of Padua in 1932. He arrived in Belluno in 1934, first working in the general medicine department and then in what was known as the sanatorium in San Gervasio, which housed tuberculosis and silicotuberculosis patients. Del Fabbro specialized in public health and respiratory diseases, earning his specialization in 1937. During the second World War, he served as a medical officer on the Greek front, where he was awarded the War Cross for Military Valor. After the war, Del Fabbro’s dedication led to significant changes in Belluno’s healthcare. Initially serving as an assistant, and finally, in 1950, as the head physician, he turned the sanatorium into the Pneumology Department as silicosis became less of an emergency. From 1952 to 1954, while serving as the head of the sanatorium, he initiated an interesting but little-known initiative with teacher Emilio Millo, organizing courses for patients to obtain primary and secondary school diplomas. His close connection with the Belluno community led him to delve deeply into the serious problem of silicosis, becoming one of its leading experts. That’s why he was involved in drafting Law 780 on silicosis and as besto sis. Del Fabbro also briefly served as a city councilor in Belluno, elected in 1956 on the Socialist Party, holding office until November 1960 when Adriano Barcelloni Corte and Annibale Dal Mas were mayors. “But not enjoying the balancing act of political life,” noted L’Amico del Popolo at his death, “he preferred to dedicate himself to social life, committing deeply to volunteer work.” Del Fabbro authored numerous reports and publications (33 in total). He founded the Bulletin of the Medical Association of Belluno Province, serving as its president from 1973. He later became president of the Belluno Blood Donors Association (from 1976) and was among the founders of the Comitato di Intesa tra le Associazioni Volontaristiche della Provincia in 1976, also serving as its first president. Volunteering became perhaps Del Fabbro’s main occupation. He demonstrated his generosity through numerous donations, including to the promotional committee for the CT scanner and to the Wamba hospital in Kenya. In the year of his death, the city of Belluno awarded him the San Martino Prize, which the municipal administration presented to a deserving citizen. The ceremony, chaired by Mayor Toscano (who also recently passed away), took place in the city auditorium. The prize was awarded posthumously to Dr. Valentino Del Fabbro “for his intense humanitarian work throughout his life.” He was also honored as an Officer of the Order of Merit of the Italian Republic, a distinction he had “modestly” kept “perhaps too hidden.” The Belluno ACLI Patronage, for which he was a consultant, remembered him as the doctor who had long been involved in voluntary legal representation in occupational and forensic medicine. As a medical consultant specializing in social advocacy, especially for ACLI Patronage but also for INCA CGIL, he assisted tens of thousands of workers, particularly migrants, affected by silicosis. He was especially distinguished “in the delicate and often difficult phases of administrative and legal disputes, engaging with the Medical Consultancy of the National Institute for Insurance against Workplace Accidents and Occupational Diseases.” A study dedicated to the tragedy of silicosis and the figure of Del Fabbro will culminate next year in a book that the Bellunesi nel Mondo association intends to publish to mark the 50th anniversary of Law 780, which was strongly supported in Parliament by MP Giovanni Bortot.

  • A Rediscovered heritage: The rising of the Serrai di Sottoguda
    2024/09/02
    Six years after the Vaia storm, the Serrai di Sottoguda was reopened at the end of July. This two-kilometer-long canyon, carved into the rocks at the foot of the Marmolada by the Pettorina stream over millennia, was nearly destroyed by the great storm of late October 2018. The stormwater carved a trench along the road, destroying all the underground utilities, including the aqueduct, sewage system, and electrical installations. Fourteen bridges were also swept away by the flood. It took six years of work, still not fully completed, and an investment of €13.2 million to restore the passage, rebuild the aqueduct, sewage system, and other utilities throughout the canyon, from Malga Ciapela to the hamlet of Sottoguda, part of Rocca Pietore, recognized as one of the most beautiful hamlets in Italy. The pathway is partly made of wood and mostly in concrete, using larch wood known for its weather resistance. The various sections of the wooden walkway (350 meters in length) are anchored to the canyon rock with ties and concrete. The number of bridges has been reduced from 14 to just six. The path is enchanting: a journey through a gorge between 5 and 20 meters wide, with vertical walls up to a hundred meters high, which in winter become a prime spot for ice climbers. Upon entering the Serrai, before reaching the information point, you cross a bridge that is not much higher than the Pettorina stream. However, the columns on both sides of the bridge hide some winches that can raise the bridge by 1.5 meters in case of flooding. The entire two-kilometer path is much higher than before when the road used to run alongside the stream. Now, the Pettorina is far below, serval meters beneath the roadbed. The exact date of the Serrai road's construction is unknown, but it is believed to coincide with the expansion of transport and postal services in the mid of the 18th century. Initially, it was a path, then a road connecting Sottoguda to Malga Ciapela and thus to the Fedaia Pass, a gateway to Trentino. Until the mid-1960s, it was the only route between Sottoguda and Malga Ciapela before the provincial road was built. The Serrai road was appreciated by the first Dolomite scholars and early English and German travelers searching for unknown and exotic landscapes. In recent decades, hundreds of thousands of tourists, many of them foreigners, enjoyed walking, cycling, or taking the small train along the two-kilometer route. Then came Vaia, the storm that devastated an entire province and struck the Rocca Pietore area with its strong fury. Now, it is time to admire again the breathtaking canyon, the towering cliffs, and the distant yet fierce stream. It's also an opportunity to appreciate the work done by seven Belluno companies that spent six years restoring this environmental gem. The Belluno companies decided to reopen the Serrai immediately, even though the work is not yet finished. For a month and a half, until mid-September, visitors entered in groups of 30, with four daily tours guided by environmental and tourism guides. The Serrai will then close again to allow the realization of the remaining work. It’s likely to reopen in the spring when it will be freely accessible. Meanwhile, the municipality of Rocca Pietore will need to organize a tender for the management of the Serrai, which will include maintenance and visitor arrangements. While visits during this period are free, access will be paid from next spring, although the details and pricing are still unknown. Once news spread that the Serrai was visitable again, the booking website was overwhelmed with requests, with up to 90 entry requests per hour. Amid such high demand, inconveniences and disruptions were inevitable. The companies perhaps did not anticipate such a rush, and the system was overwhelmed. By mid-August, all available spots (120 per day) until mid-September were fully booked. This sparked criticism and complaints, as tourists were unaware that these visits were an exceptional event, allowed during ongoing construction with potential sudden closures depending on the work. The “everything now” mentality is, unfortunately, a harmful trait of our times. This phenomenon, known as overtourism, refers to the excessive number of tourists and can be seen at Sorapiss Lake, Braies Lake in South Tyrol, and the Tre Cime di Lavaredo. Everyone wants to visit these places, often by car, prompting discussions about restricting access to many of these Dolomite treasures. The municipality of Rocca Pietore will need to find a solution to another significant issue: parking. The hamlet of Sottoguda has very few parking spaces, and more distant options and alternatives will need to be found, possibly with a shuttle system.Diventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/bellunesi-nel-mondo-viaggia-in-podcast--6171550/support.
