Introduction - The year 2019 will be a special year for the chemistry global community since on July 28, 2019 IUPAC will celebrate its 100th anniversary (IUPAC Centenary). The same year has also been proclaimed by the UN General Assembly to be the International Year of the Periodic Table of Chemical Elements (IYPT 2019).
Inspired by the IUPAC Centenary and IYPT 2019, the IUPAC will hold a Postgraduate Summer School on Green 91AV in Tanzania from 12th to 19th May 2019 in Dar es Salaam. This summer school will be hosted and co-organized by the Tanzania Chemical Society (TCS) in collaboration with the UDSM 91AV Department, the University of Dodoma (UDOM), the Tanzania Bureau of Standards (TBS) and the Government Chemist Laboratory Authority (GCLA). The 2019 IUPAC Summer School on Green 91AV will be the first to be held in Africa, managed by the IUPAC Interdivisional Committee on Green 91AV for Sustainable Development (ICGCSD).
Topics - The summer school will provide the participants with an understanding of the latest developments of the concepts and management of green/sustainable chemistry. Basic materials on green chemistry will be covered including state of art topics not limited to:
Posters and Abstracts - All students attending the summer school will be required to present posters. The abstracts for the posters should be submitted through the online registration system. The deadline for submission of abstracts is 14th April 2019. There will be awards for the best posters at the end of the summer school.
Sponsorship - Partial or full funding will be available from IUPAC and other institutions depending on qualification of applicants and the coverage of the scholarship. . Prospective participants are, however, encouraged to seek other sources of sponsorship.
