EUCHEMS - European Chemical Society

EuChemS, the European Chemical Society, is an umbrella organisation representing national Chemical Societies and other chemistry-related organisations in Europe. EuChemS aims to nurture a platform for scientific discussion and to provide a single, unbiased European voice on key policy issues in chemistry and related fields.

EuChemS has been active since 1970, initially under the name of FECS (Federation of European Chemical Societies). FECS was established on 3 July 1970 in Prague by 17 Member Societies from both east and west Europe. In the summer of 2018, a new name, acronym and logo was adopted: EuChemS, the European Chemical Society.

Representing more than 160,000 chemists from 51 Member Societies and other chemistry related organisations, EuChemS relies on a unique network of active researchers involved in all the fields of chemistry. Through this network, EuChemS organises several specialised academic conferences as well as the biannual EuChemS Chemistry Congress, the European congress of chemical sciences. EuChemS also promotes the role and image of the chemical sciences among the general public and policy-makers through social media, newsletters and through the organisation of conferences and workshops open to the society.

CNR joins EuChemS as a "Supporting Member" with the right to one vote in the General Assembly.
