cover: The Young Ambassadors for Chemistry (YAC) is a project of the IUPAC Committee on Chemistry Education that trains teachers around the world to communicate the benefits of chemistry to the general public with the help of their students as young ambassadors. In September 2019, the project was held in Mongolia with enthusiasm and success to share; see report by Masahiro Kamata, p. 42.

The 2020 calendar of conferences has been disrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Most events originally planned are been cancelled, postponed, and in a few instances reframed as virtual events. All IUPAC-endorsed events originally scheduled in 2020 and that are postponed will retain their endorsement. We invite you to review regularly the calendar of IUPAC endorsed events at https://iupac.org/events/
