Scientific collaboration knows no borders or boundaries and when traditional connections fail between nations, science is an excellent diplomatic tool.
Join leaders from the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW), the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine (NAS), and the Malta Conferences Foundation as they discuss how diplomacy can be promoted through science. During this interactive broadcast, discover about the career paths of three scientists who work at the intersection of science and international policy and consider how your work contributes to science diplomacy.
This ACS Webinar features Peter Hotchkiss of OPCW, Vaughan Turekian of NAS, and Zafra Lerman of Malta Conferences Foundation, is moderated by Lori Brown of the American Chemical Society, and co-produced with ACS External Affairs & Communications.
