In December 2023, the International Science Council (ISC) appointed 100 new Fellows, in recognition of outstanding contributions to promoting science as a global public good. Among them is former IUPAC President, now Past President, Professor Javier García Martínez, and former Bureau member Professor Ghada Bassioni. The Fellowship is the highest honour that can be conferred on an individual by the ISC. Together with the 123 individuals that were appointed in 2022, the new ISC Fellows will support the ISC Council in its mission at a critical moment for science and sustainability for science as we enter the UN’s International Decade of Sciences for Sustainable Development (IDSSD) in 2024.
2023 年 12 月,国际科学理事会(ISC)任命了 100 名新研究员,以表彰他们为促进科学这一全球公益事业所做出的杰出贡献。其中包括前国际理论化学和应用化学联合会(IUPAC)主席、现任前任主席哈维尔-加西亚-马丁内斯(Javier García Martínez)教授和前主席团成员加达-巴西奥尼(Ghada Bassioni)教授。该奖学金是国际科学委员会授予个人的最高荣誉。随着2024年联合国国际科学促进可持续发展十年(IDSSD)的到来,新一届国际科学委员会研究员将与2022年任命的123名研究员一起,在科学和科学可持续性的关键时刻支持国际科学委员会理事会履行其使命。

In October 2015, the The Hague Ethical Guidelines were adopted by OPCW and were endorsed by IUPAC 4 May 2016. In line with that development, attention has been focused on formulating core values for chemists, focusing specifically on the ethical aspects of the use of chemical knowledge, as well as the use of chemicals within the environment. There are many examples of misuse of chemical knowledge, as demonstrated in the TV series Breaking Bad focusing on the production of illicit drugs. Within chemical industry the use of (micro)plastics, the use and production of pesticides is another issue. Within education, codes of academic conduct have always played an important role. Recently more attention has been given in education to ethical use of chemical knowledge and the relationship between the use of chemically produced compounds, and the production of chemical compounds and the environment. This is demonstrated for example by the development of Green Chemistry.
