The 13^rd International Conference on History of Chemistry (13ICHC) organized by the EuChemS Working Party on the History of Chemistry (WPHC), in cooperation with Vilnius University, was be announced to be held in Vilnius (Lithuania), from the 18^th to the 22^nd of May 2021. See: https://www.ichc2021vilnius.chgf.vu.lt/.

Due to the evolution of the Covid-19 pandemic the conference has been postponed to May 2023.

The conference will be hosted by Vilnius University (established in 1579), in the premises of old city. The Department of Chemistry was established in 1797, still holding a position of one of the most popular departments at the University. The education of history of chemistry reaches outside the University, also involving initiatives for community and younger generation. The conference will invite historians of chemistry from Europe and other countries of the world to share the good practice examples to educate history of chemistry. Ideas of modern patterns and attractive lessons are welcome; also overviews of media and broadcasting projects on history of chemistry may be presented

The conference will be jointly organized by the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (SLU) and Uppsala University through the Division of Agrarian History and the Department of Economic History respectively.

The aim of the Rural History 2021 conference is to promote a scientific discussion on new research on rural history in a broad sense by bringing together researchers dealing with different regions, different time periods and from different theoretical and methodological traditions.

In accordance with this, the conference is open for research on all aspects on the history of the countryside in Europe and its interaction with other parts of the world throughout time. We welcome participation from different academic subjects (e.g. history, archaeology, geography, economic history, economics, sociology, anthropology, development studies, gender studies, environmental history, historical demography) presenting and discussing new research and thereby contributing to expanding our knowledge on the rural history of Europe and beyond.
