About International Organization for Chemical Sciences in Development

Funded in 1981 in the UNESCO framework, IOCD's mission is to promote the pursuit and application of the chemical sciences for sustainable, equitable human development and economic growth. It does so by repositioning chemistry as a science for the benefit of society and promoting the role of the chemical sciences in sustainable development. IOCD has been involved, and still is, in education programs for students in low-income countries where it has made donation of books, scientific journals, laboratory equipment and chemical products. IOCD members are involved in scientific chairs, working groups and projects focused on renewable energies, sustainable electronics, responsible use of materials and more. Low- and middle-income countries are involved in these activities.
