The authors of the report, Prof. Yehudit Judy Dori, Dr. Gabriella Shwartz and Or Shav-Artza, emphasize that the chemistry profession is of national and economic importance to Israel. The report showed a bleak situation regarding the state of the chemistry laboratories, which was defined as bad, and most schools do not have chemistry laboratories at all.
