Global Challenges, Chemistry Solutions Why and How We Support the Effort to Tackle Global Challenges RSCNEWS JANUARY 2015 www.rsc.org Global challenges, chemistry solutions Why and how we support the effort to tackle global challenges Professional development for teachers p10 Expanding our regional networks p12 On 4 and 5 November, we held the 3rd RSC/P&G symposium at the University of Nairobi. With a focus on regulatory harmonisation, hygiene and sustainability, over 200 delegates from across Africa attended to share knowledge and form new connections. During the event, Raffaele Scoccianti from P&G Connect and Develop Africa (below right) announced that the company will support a new internship at the University of Nairobi to look at the sustainable provision of safe, clean water to urban communities. This replicates the successful programme that we have established in Nigeria, and is a model that will enable us to work with new partners to support the Pan Africa Chemistry Network.

  • Table of Contents
    The HistoryMakers® ScienceMaker Toolkit Table of Contents 1 2 3 The HistoryMakers® ScienceMakers Toolkit Dear ScienceMakers Toolkit Users: In August of 2009, The HistoryMakers, the nation’s largest African American video oral history archive, was awarded a $2.3 million three-year grant from the National Science Foundation to create ScienceMakers, an innovative African American media and education initiative focused on capturing and preserving the stories of African Americans in the STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) professions. The HistoryMakers is a national 501(c)(3) non-profit educational institution founded in 1999 committed to preserving, developing and providing easy access to an internationally recognized archival collection of thousands of African American video oral histories. Many are unaware of the contributions of African Americans in the STEM professions. This lack of knowledge adversely affects our youth and their perceptions of the STEM professions. ScienceMakers will disseminate the stories of STEM professionals to youth and adult audiences through the internet, public programs and innovative uses of new technologies. We see the lives of these scientists and their careers as a gateway to greater numbers of youth pursuing STEM careers. We also hope that it will result in an increased interest and awareness of the accomplishments of African American scientists. This 2010 ScienceMakers Toolkit is intended to be a career and educational resource and features well-known African American scientists like Lloyd Ferguson of the University of California, Berkeley and Neil deGrasse Tyson of the Hayden Planetarium in New York City. Others include James West, co-inventor of the electret microphone, and Lisa Jackson, administrator of the United States Environmental Protection Agency.

    Strengthening Environmental Justice Research and Decision Making: A Symposium on the Science of Disproportionate Environmental Health Impacts Dear Symposium Participants, It is with great pleasure and excitement that we welcome you to Strengthening Environmental Justice Research and Decision Making: A Symposium on the Science of Disproportionate Environmental Health Impacts. For over a year we have worked to organize this symposium and to bring together a diverse set of expert panels, speakers, and participants, premised on the recognition that the issue of environmental justice and environmental health equity in U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) decision making requires a broadening of the dialogue and the sources of scholarship, knowledge, and expertise that are brought to the table. Multiple factors, including social, political, psychosocial, economic, physical, chemical, and biological determinants, contribute to disproportionate human health or environmental impacts. Therefore, diverse expertise, including environmental public health scientists, environmental and social epidemiologists, medical anthropologists, geographers, biostatisticians, population health scientists, toxicologists, social scientists, policy analysts, and community experts with interests in media-specific pollution, disparities in environmental disease burdens, children’s environmental health, environmental justice, etc., are needed at the table to weave their perspectives together to better inform environmental health policy and environmental regulatory decision making to achieve environmental justice and environmental health equity. For this Symposium we are focused on EPA’s regulatory decision making because the regulatory development process at EPA is currently undergoing significant change to assure that all decisions incorporate environmental justice. The Symposium is purposed to lay the groundwork for developing a systematic and scientifically defensible approach for incorporating environmental justice concerns into EPA’s decision-making process.
