19. MEETING WITH FLAQ
An invitation to speak at the Board meeting of the Federación
Latinoamericana de Asociaciones Químicas (July 27, 1998)
was accepted by the Secretary General in order to make IUPAC
better known in a part of the world where IUPAC has comparatively
few members. The Executive Director also attended the meeting
and both the Secretary General and the Executive Director were
able to speak with the heads of several chemical societies. Extensive
conversations were held with the heads of the Mexican, Peruvian,
Venezuelan and Colombian Chemical Societies. Both during and
after the meeting various IUPAC materials were distributed to
help inform the participants of the full range of the Union's
activities. An offer to host a home page for FLAQ and its next
Congress in 2000, to be held in Lima, Peru, was made to the FLAQ
Board.
Prof. Jortner proposed that the next in the series of regional
meetings on IUPAC should be held at the FLAQ Congress in 2000.
