Financial
Support for Conferences
In general, IUPAC sponsorship of a conference or symposium
attests to its quality but does not carry financial support. However,
Divisions and Standing Committees of IUPAC may apply for financial
support via two programs for Conferences:
- New Directions in Chemistry
- Scientifically Emerging Regions
IUPAC modest financial support -of the order of USD
4000 per conference- is to promote the specific participation of international
expert lecturers or of young scientists and advanced students from
that region or to realize the specific participation of IUPAC Lecturers.
Conferences
on New Directions in Chemistry
This IUPAC program provides modest financial support on a competitive
basis, to Divisions and Standing Committees that wish to support or
organize conferences, symposia, or workshops on the "frontiers
of science". Conferences that are part of an IUPAC series may
be considered under this program if they demonstrate significant focus
on new ideas in chemistry or if they focus on a novel interaction
of chemistry with a new domain. The meeting must be located in a country
represented in IUPAC by a National Adhering Organization.

Conferences
in Scientifically Emerging Regions
This IUPAC program provides modest financial support on a competitive
basis, to Divisions and Standing Committees that wish to support or
organize conferences that are located in scientifically emerging
regions. The intent is to impact on scientifically emerging regions
where a priori IUPAC has currently few activities, by initiating
programs coordinated by IUPAC Divisions or Committees, or by supporting
local initiatives.
