IUPAC’s Support Center serves as a crucial hub to offer various types of support, with the following being the main aspects:

Financial Support

Through special donations, IUPAC provides financial assistance for the participation of countries with limited resources. This support helps these countries get involved in IUPAC’s activities, such as conferences and projects, promoting global collaboration and development in the chemical sciences.

Project Support

IUPAC supports a formal Project System where chemists from around the world can submit project proposals. These proposals undergo peer review, and if deemed meritorious, they are approved and supported by IUPAC. This system fosters innovation and advancement in the field of chemistry.

Resource Support

IUPAC publishes a wide range of technical reports, journals, books, databases, and other information resources. These materials facilitate the conduct of scientific research and conferences. The Support Center helps researchers and scientists access these valuable resources, enhancing their work and contributing to the advancement of chemical sciences.

Capacity Building Support

IUPAC focuses on building capacity within the chemical community. The Support Center plays a role in organizing training programs, workshops, and seminars to help chemists enhance their skills and knowledge. This, in turn, strengthens the overall capabilities of the chemical community.

Award Support

IUPAC provides awards to recognize scientific excellence. The Support Center assists in the administration of these awards, helping to identify and honor outstanding chemists and their contributions to the field.

Collaboration Support

IUPAC engages in joint projects with other organizations. The Support Center supports these collaborations by coordinating efforts, sharing resources, and facilitating communication between IUPAC and its partner organizations. This collaborative approach helps address complex challenges in the chemical sciences and amplifies the impact of IUPAC’s work.
