The biennial award is presented to distinguished chemists whose work has significantly contributed to humanity, promoted human rights, and fostered dialogue between chemistry and society.
Previous recipients include Roald Hoffmann (2017), Vincenzo Balzani (2021), and Henning Hopf (2023).
The call for nominations for the 2025 edition is now open.
