Pan Africa Chemistry Network
With a special focus on the Millennium Development Goals and the countries of Central Africa, the Network will ultimately span the entire Continent.
Launched in London on 21 November 2007 and in Nairobi on 27 May 2008, the Pan Africa Chemistry Network is in the early stages of development. The PANC aims to help African countries to integrate into regional, national and international scientific networks.
The Network represents an innovative approach to working with the science community in Africa
Including upcoming schools outreach, conferences and workshops that are occurring in Africa, as well as containing downloadable teaching resources.
