Decadal Plan for Chemistry—Committee

The Decadal Plan for Chemistry is managed by a working group consisting of leading chemistry researchers from around the country, including the President of the RACI, members of the NCC, as well as representatives from industry (PACIA), the Australian Research Council (ARC), the high school sector and CSIRO. Consultation across as much of the chemistry community as possible is desired and this will be achieved by public consultation through more than a dozen open meetings, presentations by working group members, one-on-one interviews across the sector and web-based, written submissions from the community. There will be a further feedback process following release of the White Paper in 2015.

In addition to the working group, sub-committees focused on key areas will contribute to the collection and surveying process.
