Sharing from a discussion list I'm on:

"Just wanted to let you know about some upcoming deadlines for the #RoyalSocietyOfChemistry Outreach Fund and #ChemistryWeek grant schemes.
Through these grants we're really interested in supporting engagement projects that connect different audiences (e.g. #families, under 5s, #youth, young carers, older adults, people with #disabilities, under-served communities, #schools) with #chemistry.

- Outreach Fund: **upcoming deadline** 04/09/23 (last deadline for 2023 is 06/11)
Grants of up to £10,000 available to support chemical science engagement activities in the UK/ROI for both public and schools based audiences.
For more information go to https://rsc.li/outreach-fund

- Chemistry Week 2023: Celebrating Chemistry Throughout November 2023 - **Upcoming Deadline** 04/09/23.
This year Chemistry Week is 5 – 11 Nov. 2023 but we invite you to celebrate the chemical sciences throughout November within the theme of “chemistry making the world a better place”.
Grants up to £500 available via the RSC Chemistry Week 2023 grant scheme (remaining deadlines: 04/09, 02/10).
If you have plans for a larger activity within Chemistry Week please apply via the Outreach Fund (as above).
For more information on Chemistry Week go to https://www.rsc.org/policy-evidence-campaigns/outreach/get-involved/#chemistry-week

Both funding streams are open to all, and are only open to UK and Republic of Ireland applicants for activity to take place within the UK and Republic of Ireland."

Over 50 publishing organisations have jointly committed to action on inclusion and diversity. This great initiative from the Royal Society of Chemistry now has a steering committee chaired by Nicola Nugent: https://www.rsc.org/policy-evidence-campaigns/inclusion-diversity/joint-commitment-for-action-inclusion-and-diversity-in-publishing/joint-commitment-steering-committee/

It will hopefully complement and work alongside our Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion committee chaired by Ana Heredia, PhD https://ease.org.uk/communities/special-interest-committees/equity-diversity-and-inclusion-committee/

The Royal Society of Chemistry needs your input on #ResearchCulture:

"Share your views on what a positive science culture should look like for the chemical sciences. Registration is now open to join our science culture focus groups 👉" https://www.rsc.org/news-events/articles/2023/01-january/science-culture-focus-groups/

The groups will be held on Feb 1 and 16. HT Karen Stroobants on Twitter
