Prof. Dr. Shamsun Nahar Khan, Department of Pharmacy, is appointed as an “Global Essay Competition” evaluator by the IOCD (International Organization for Chemical Sciences). The IOCD, in collaboration with the royal society of chemistry (RSC), has launched an annual essay competition, 'young voices in the chemical sciences for sustainability' in 2023.
The theme for the 2023 competition is: “How Can the Chemical Sciences Lead the Stewardship of the Earth’s Element Resources?”
Essays will be grouped into seven regions for shortlisting and selection of winners, each regional winner will receive a prize of US$500 and their entries will be published in RSC Sustainability. The shortlisted essays will be collected in an annual compendium, Young Voices in the Chemical Sciences for Sustainability, published as a PDF online and available on IOCD's website. Individual shortlisted entries will also be featured from time to time on IOCD's website.
