Abstract
The history of the IUPAC Photochemistry Committee since its creation in 1976 and its transition in 2001 to the IUPAC Photochemistry Sub-Committee are reviewed as well as the connections of Committee and Sub-Committee to the various photochemical associations (European Photochemical Association, EPA, Inter-American Photochemical Society, I-APS and Asian and Oceanian Photochemistry Association, APA). The participants in both the Commission and the Sub-Committee over the years are listed as well as the Recommendations and Technical Reports produced since the creation of the Committee until the present days.
