Biographical review

[edit]

In the 1940s, Costa Rica was experiencing a life of political effervescence and extraordinary transformations. The Universidad de Costa Rica (03-20-1940), the Caja del Seguro Social (06-03-1946), the Labor Code (05-04-1946), the 1948 Revolution, the creation of the Second Republic, the creation of ICE, etc. and within this panorama and regarding Chemistry there were a few chemical and pharmaceutical laboratories (such as the Ministerio de Salud, with William Cáceres, Raúl Coto and lately Guillermo Chaverri; the Analytical Laboratory of the School of Agronomy with Francisco Sancho and Mauricio Fernández , the Fabrica Nacional de Licores Laboratory with Dr. Adrián Chaverri) and a few industrial laboratories for medicinal and cosmetic products.

A group of chemistry professionals (Chemists, Chemical Engineers, Physicochemicals, Pharmacists, Professors, mainly), led by Dr. Adrián Chaverri Rodríguez, drew up a draft statute of a professional association, which after consulting potential professionals and interested businessmen, timely submitted to the Founding Board of the Second Republic chaired by José Figueres Ferrer, so that it could convert it into Law Decree No. 431 of March 15, 1949, later another clarification, No. 627 of 20 July 1949, to found the Association of Chemists of Costa Rica. The latter was legally installed by provision of the University Council of the Universidad de Costa Rica, on December 5 of that same year. The founding professionals were:

  • Jorge Aragón Rodríguez (Q)
  • Jesús Baldares Molina (FQ)
  • Carlos Borel Lauterburg (FQ)
  • Rafael Ángel Cartín Montero (PB y Q)
  • Álvaro Víctor Chavarría Poll (Q)
  • Guillermo Chaverri Benavides (Q)
  • Adrián Chaverri Rodríguez (Q)
  • Gil Chaverri Rodríguez (Ag Q)
  • Alberto Golcher Avendaño (Ag Q)
  • Enrique Góngora Umaña (IQ)
  • Rodolfo Gurdián Montealegre (IQ)

The First Board of Directors with which the Chemists Association began work, was composed of the following:

  • President: Dr. Adrián Chaverri Rodríguez
  • Secretary: Lic. Óscar Arguedas Ocampo
  • Treasurer: Ing. Rodolfo Gurdián Montero
  • Prosecutor: Master Guillermo Chaverri Benavides
  • First Member: Ing. Jorge Aragón Rodríguez
  • Second Member: Lic. Raúl Coto Fernández
  • Third Member: Dr. Carlos Borel Lauterburg

The Association was created with the name of the Chemists Association in 1949, then its name changed from the of Chemists and Chemical Engineers Association in 1969, in 1977 it changed to the name of the Federated Association of Chemists and Chemical Engineers of Costa Rica, and finally through the Law N. 8412 title II is named Chemists Association of Costa Rica.

The international image that has been formed of the professionals of this Association has been consistent and manifest in the confidence it gave them to organize and direct the X and XIV Latin American Chemistry Congresses, held with the sponsorship of the Latin American Federation of Chemical Associations ( FLAQ) in 1969 and 1981 respectively. Also to celebrate 40 years of the College and in tribute to Dr. Adrián Chaverri, who died on May 15, 1988, the First National Congress of Chemistry Science and Technology was held between July 14 and 21, 1989.

The private sector with its industrial and technical assistance component clearly reflects the important participation of these professionals. Likewise, public entities have increasingly counted on their contribution for the good of their development.[2]
