Each year IUPAC endorses a large number of independently organized conferences, symposiums and workshops that cover a wide range of specialized topics in chemistry. Endorsement by IUPAC attests to the quality of the scientific program and indicates the host country’s assurance that scientists from all countries may participate. See program details. In addition, the calendar below includes webinars and workshops related to specific IUPAC projects or joint activities with associated organizations.

The next webinar in our Promoting Chemistry Applied to World Needs series is coming up on December 9th from 11 a.m. to 12 p.m. EST. In this session, Dr. Evelina Colacino, Associate Professor at the University of Montpellier, will discuss the application of mechanochemical methods to the preparation of World Health Organization (WHO) essential medicines at various scales. Using green chemistry metrics, Evelina will discuss the evaluation of the environmental and economic benefits of mechanochemistry, demonstrating its potential to advance greener and more sustainable pharmaceutical manufacturing.

Time: 9 December 2025, 11:00–12:00 PM EST.
