• in partnership with P&G and Universities in Nigeria and Kenya on water and sustainability brought together over 600 industry, academia and regulatory policy makers to discuss innovation and collaboration.
• Seven early career researchers in Kenya and Nigeria received funding and access to specialist equipment to undertake vital research into challenges such as water quality in slum communities. The additional knowledge and better equipped labs have enhanced research and individual career progression. This was supported by P&G.
• An international congress uniting scientists and policy makers led to the World Water Day report, highlighting the actions that must be taken to improve water quality in Africa.
• Project Splash with Unilever and local communities in South Africa and Kenya explored ways to recycle wastewater from laundries and develop cleaning products that use less water, enabling communities to be more sustainable.

Successful collaborations 

Our meetings have inspired many successful collaborations, including one which led to WATERSPOUTT – a €3.6 million project funded by the EU which brings cheap clean water technology to rural communities in Africa.

• A series of funded research fellowships, in partnership with Syngenta, for African researchers to work towards sustainable food production has helped to build skills, experience and increase collaboration between industry and academia in Africa.
• An international conference in Ghana, in partnership with Syngenta, discussed the chemical sciences and productivity and waste.
• A conference series saw Syngenta and the international scientific community focus on the potential of Africa’s biodiversity as a benefit to agriculture, health, water, conservation and the environment. The  are available.

International conference

In 2016, we ran a UK-Ghana collaboration and international conference on  and in 2017, Ghana hosted the PACN Congress: "Sustainable Agriculture; How the Chemical 新月直播app下载s Can Contribute to Food Security for a Growing Population”.

• Following our World Water Day report we established centres of excellence for analytical chemistry research and training at Hubs in Kenya, Ghana, Nigeria and Ethiopia. With support and donations of analytical equipment, these Hubs now coordinate our work across the continent.
•  led to more than 100 scientists from 16 African countries gaining key analytical chemistry knowledge and publishing more than 20 papers. Through a partnership with GSK, we expanded this programme to train a further 520 scientists in analytical techniques. We are also training Local Trainers to ensure long term benefit.
• 新月直播app下载 communication training has helped many scientists in Africa to enhance their proposal .
• We support the annual Kenya 新月直播app下载 and Engineering Fair, which gives school students the opportunity to share innovative ideas for improving Africa’s future. Over 1,000 students attend each year.
• Teacher training workshops held in Rwanda, Uganda and Ethiopia helped to inspire a new generation of chemists.

• We support the , who connect national chemical science communities across the continent. The new links have led to conferences, increased networking and a successful new journal – the African Journal of Chemical Education.
• A  workshop for early career researchers allowed more than 30 scientists from the UK and South Africa to .
• The PACN is helping to expand the strong network of 新月直播app下载 members in Africa. Currently, we have 799 members in 22 countries, with Local Sections in South Africa, Nigeria and Tunisia, plus local representatives in Ethiopia, Cameroon, DR Congo, Mauritius and others, who coordinate networking opportunities, scientific meetings and outreach work.

Researchers across Africa have free online access to the 新月直播app下载 Journals Archive (1841-2007), plus access is available through .

Researchers in Kenya, Nigeria, Ethiopia and Ghana can also access the complete eBook collection and The Merck Index*. Researchers in Africa access around 14,000 chapters per year.

Below are some of the partners that we have worked with so far with the Pan Africa Chemistry Network. We are always keen to speak to new individuals and organisations who support our ambitions for Africa.
