Rethinking the Practice of Chemistry: Introducing the IUPAC Guiding Principles of Responsible Chemistry

Developed by the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC), these principles aim to support responsible, ethical and sustainable practices across research, education, industry and policy. The webinar will present the background to the initiative and explore how the principles can be implemented and discussed within the wider chemistry community.

What to Expect:

• Gain awareness of the eight IUPAC Guiding Principles and how they can be applied in different contexts.

• Join the ongoing conversation ahead of ECC10.

• Contribute examples and adaptations aligned with national and institutional perspectives.

• Access practical resources, including links, case studies and templates to support implementation.

The keynote lecture will be given by Javier Garcia Martinez, former IUPAC President, following introductory words by EuChemS President Angela Agostiano. Contributions from the attendees are most welcome during the Q&A  session of the webinar
