Division/Committee: [AGFD: Division of Agricultural and Food Chemistry] [AGRO: Division of Agrochemicals] [ANYL: Division of Analytical Chemistry] [ENVR: Division of Environmental Chemistry]

Zero Hunger is one of the U.N. Sustainable Development Goals (SDG-2). The symposium will highlight how early career investigators from Food Security CCC divisions (AGFD, AGRO, ANYL, ENVR) address global hunger challenges. The goal is to illustrate how early career investigators are applying chemistry to explore and overcome challenges in alleviating world hunger. It aims to cover sustainable agricultural practices, innovative food safety techniques, better environmental strategies, and more. We invite researchers, policymakers, industry professionals, and educators interested in chemistry's role in food security to attend. The event will facilitate interdisciplinary networking, promote scientific-policy integration, and explore international cooperation in food security. This symposium represents a vital platform for advancing global food security solutions through scientific collaboration and innovation. Travel awards are available for a total of 8 awardee duos (Principal Investigator for an oral presentation AND a graduate/undergraduate student for a poster presentation, 2 for each division). Details can be found on the division websites.
