The IUPAC Committee on Chemistry Education (CCE) aims to develop global collaborative working relationships relevant to the learning and teaching of chemistry.  It emphasizes the importance of high quality student-centered learning practices as well as identifying and discussing the learning outcomes in chemistry education.  The activities that support these aims are numerous and quite broad.  The CCE supports and is engaged in numerous activities that develop high quality materials for learning chemistry and engages with other IUPAC divisions in developing technical reports that inform the global community about important matters such as the proposed redefinition of the quantity “amount of substance” and its unit, the mole. The CCE supports initiatives that increase the engagement of under represented groups in chemistry.  Additionally it supports initiatives that raise awareness, social responsibility, and the understanding of the nature of science as well as environmental and ethical issues that are related to chemistry.  This presentation will highlight some of the initiatives that the CCE has carried out and has been engaged in where the sharing of ideas and information has impacted chemistry education.
