Event Calendar 2025 for Equal Opportunities in Chemistry

Since the GDCh working group on Equal Opportunities in Chemistry (AKCC) was founded in 2000, the GDCh will celebrate " 25 years of commitment to equal opportunities in chemistry " in 2025.

With this event calendar we would like to make all actions, events, initiatives, studies, publications, etc. for more equal opportunities visible and encourage people to get involved. We would also be happy to accept your contributions.
