The election for the post of ACE vice-president was held at the association's general assembly, during the 22nd European Meeting on Environmental Chemistry conference, held in Ljubljana, Slovenia. Prof. Małgorzata Szynkowska-Jóźwik will be the only representative of Poland in the international group of scientists gathered in the organisation's executive board.
The Association's priority is to create a broad forum for the discussion of important topics related to the latest developments in environmental chemistry research. This interdisciplinary field related to so-called 'green chemistry' is extremely important from the point of view of environmental welfare concerns. The association also promotes education geared towards environmental protection
- explains the new vice-president of ACE.
