2011 is the International Year of Chemistry (IYC). IYC is a global celebration devoted to chemistry and its role in the well-being of society. Through events at the local, provincial, national, and international levels, organizers hope to spark enthusiasm for this central science in all people of all ages.
The Chemical Institute of Canada is proud to be leading the Canadian initiative and all CIC members are encouraged to join in the celebrations in 2011 by holding events of their own or participating in the many events planned throughout the year.
IYC will be promoted in Canada through activities and programs such as a Canadian stamp, the publication of Canadian chemistry milestones, Science Rendezvous, YouTube contest, Chemistry Olympiads, National Chemistry Week, partnerships with developing countries and global experiments. We are hoping to reach over 500,000 Canadians in our outreach campaign.
