IYCN Science for Policy Survey - Share Your Insight

IYCN Uncategorised
Dear IYCN Members,

We appreciate your continued engagement with IYCN. The IYCN Science for Policy Committee is conducting a survey to understand the barriers that younger chemists face while engaging at the science-policy interface. The survey will take about 10 minutes to complete and it does not capture any personally identifiable information. The outcomes of the research are solely intended for research purposes and to develop stakeholders' understanding for informed decision-making in the context. Your inputs are highly valuable and contribute to diversification of perspectives in this matter.
 
Please complete the survey by the latest 15/4/2025, Thanks for your time and contribution.
