This document discusses the International Year of Chemistry in 2011, which aimed to increase public appreciation and understanding of chemistry, encourage youth interest in the field, celebrate its role in meeting world needs, and discuss chemistry's future role in sustainability. It notes chemistry's importance in achieving UN Millennium Development Goals like eradicating poverty and disease. Events in Indonesia for IYC2011 included workshops, conferences, and an exhibition organized by chemistry groups and institutions to promote chemistry's value.

2. IYC 2011
All known matter – gas, liquid and solid – is composed of
the chemical elements or of compounds made from those
elements. Humankind’s understanding of the material
nature of our world is grounded in our knowledge of
chemistry. Indeed all living processes are controlled by
chemical reactions.
The International Union of Pure and Applied
Chemistry (IUPAC) and UNESCO strongly
believe that it is time to celebrate the
achievements of chemistry and its
contributions to the well-being of
humankind.

3. Objectives of the International
Year of Chemistry
• Increase the public appreciation and understanding
of chemistry in meeting world needs
• Encourage interest of young people in chemistry
• Generate enthusiasm for the creative future of
chemistry
• Celebrate the role of women in chemistry and major
historical events in chemistry, including the
centenaries of Mme. Curie’s Nobel Prize
Conversation between Chemistry and Society about the future
shape of chemistry for sustainability set in the context of
chemistry’s achievements

4. United Nations Millennium Goals
Goal 1: Eradicate extreme poverty and hunger
Goal 2: Achieve universal primary education
Goal 3: Promote gender equality and empower women
Goal 4: Reduce child mortality
Goal 5: Improve maternal health
Goal 6: Combat HIV/AIDS, malaria and other diseases
Goal 7: Ensure environmental sustainability
Goal 8: Develop a Global Partnership for Development
CHEMISTRY is vital to achieving these goals!

8. Perhatian HKI pada Tahun Kimia
Internasional 2011
• Kimia, dan Sains secara umum, dapat membantu
penguatan daya saing bangsa, penyelesaian masalah-
masalah bersama, peningkatan kesejahteraan
masyarakat, dan pemuliaan nilai-nilai kemanusiaan.
• Industri kimia yang tumbuh, berkembang, dan berdaulat,
akan memberi nilai tambah yang luar biasa pada sumber
daya alam kita yang kaya, melalui perwujudan potensi
sumber daya kimiawan, melalui pendidikan, penelitian,
dan terapan kimia.
• Selain berbagai tujuan IYC2011 yang telah disebut di
muka: mendorong minat anak muda pada kimia,
membangkitkan antusiasme terhadap masa depan Kimia
yang kreatif, dll.
