The top-level and diverse range of topics focusing on Green Chemistry offered for discussion at the Summer School will give the students the chance to enhance and exchange their scientific knowledge and establish important connections with other participants and professors for future joint projects and research activities.
The strict selection of the participants contributed to form a class of high cultural level students willing to invest their talents and scientific know-how for their future professional careers in a mature and responsible way. As a result, many of them currently have important responsibilities in their respective Countries and they do acknowledge the contribution of the Summer School to their careers. This project provided support for students from less advantaged Countries, including Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Nigeria, Uganda, Zimbabwe, Uzbekistan, Mexico, or Argentina.
The Postgraduate Summer School on Green Chemistry, is an annually organized event endorsed by IUPAC, and the daily briefing is given on the IUPAC website (ex. from the 2023 summer school: https://iupac.org/brief-from-the-2023-summer-school-on-green-chemistry/).
