This symposia is one of several organized under the Theme “Chemistry for Society” during IUPAC | CCCE 2021
This symposium will feature the recent role of chemistry and IUPAC in the global affairs with contributions from global organizations such as the OPCW, BIPM (redefinition of the SI, IUPAC Div V), World Antidoping Agency, IAEA, or United States Pharmacopeia. The Symposium will showcase the close relationship between chemistry and its larger impact in society.
