One World Chemistry—IOCD Call for Volunteers
Abstract
The International Organization for Chemical Sciences in Development (IOCD) is committed to working in partnership with others to ensure that chemistry fulfils its potential of contributing to sustainability for people and for the physical and biological systems of the planet. A new orientation, “One-World” Chemistry has been proposed, which recognises the interconnectedness of human, animal, and planetary health and embraces the need for chemistry to adopt systems thinking and crossdisciplinary working to tackle the planetary challenges.
IOCD is currently seeking volunteers for a range of roles. Opportunities include:
Working Groups: joining an existing Working Group or establishing a new one
Creating an activity on mentoring and professional development in the chemical sciences
Evaluating essays in the framework of the IOCD annual Essay Competition
Fundraising for the organization’s operations
Internal governance, organization, and management work, communications and external relations.
See details at iocd.org.
