High school girls participating in a GEM (Girls Exploring Math) activity visit the university to spend a day focused on mathematics and the issue of gender representation in scientific professions. They interact with professional female mathematicians, discover unexpected aspects of the discipline, and deconstruct stereotypes that link gender and STEM fields.
On Friday, May 23rd the "Celebrating Women in Mathematics Day" will take place at the Department of Mathematics, University of Graz.
We have the pleasure to have with us:
Laura Cossu (University of Cagliari, Italy)
Erika Hausenblas (Montanuniversität Leoben, Austria)
Anastasia Molchanova (TU Wien, Austria).
To celebrate women in mathematics, our PhD female students will each present a talk of about 15 minutes on their ongoing research activities. The scientific work will be followed by readings by women scientists, selected from our prestigious library. We will conclude with a toast to women in mathematics.
The event consist of a talk delivered by ELENA GIORGI of Columbia University, with the title "Shedding Light on black holes", an opening address by Adriana Garroni, head of the Dept. of Mathematics of the University of Rome "Sapienza", a discussion and a party to celebrate women in math.
This event is conducted in memory of the birthday of Prof. Maryam Mirzakhani, the first woman field medalist in Mathematics. Maryam Mirzakhani was an Iranian mathematician and a Professor of Mathematics at Stanford University. She was one of the world’s leading experts in geometry and dynamical systems.
This event is to celebrate and support women in mathematics.
The lecture series is organized every year, since 2022, at K.J.Somaiya College of Science and Commerce, to commemorate the birth anniversary of Maryam Mirzakhani, the first woman recipient of the prestigious Fields medal. The aim is to acquaint undergraduate students with various areas of Mathematical Research.
Prof. P Ramadevi and Dr. Rekha Santhanam from IIT Bombay will deliver expository talks in this event.
Desde el Proyecto Ciencia 2030 PUC, la Facultad de Matemáticas UC, y la Vocalía de Género de las carreras de Matemáticas y Estadísticas se proponer realizar la actividad "Tejiendo Redes" para conmemorar el Día Internacional de las Mujeres Matemáticas.
Esta es una actividad lúdica en una instancia distendida (después de almuerzo, a la hora del postre) para acercar e introducir los conceptos de género a la comunidad matemática PUC. Específicamente se propone una dinámica "match glosario género".

한국여성수학자협의회(KMWS)는 한국 여성수학자들의 학문적 발전을 위해 창설된 단체로, 학자 간의 활발한 교류와 수학 저변 확대를 통해 수리과학 분야 발전과 사회에 이바지하고자 2004년 설립되었습니다. 매년 다양한 컨퍼런스와 활동을 통해 여성 수리과학자들을 양성하고 있습니다.
KWMS의 비전은 미래를 선도하는 여성 수리과학자를 선도하는 것입니다. 그리고 올해에는 여성 수학과학자들의 평등한 활동, 여성 수학과학자들의 연구 및 교류 활동을 지원하고, 여성 수학과학자들의 권익과 복지를 보호하기 위한 KWMS 기자 워크숍, 하계캠프, 리더스 포럼, 2024 뉴스레터 등의 활동이 진행된다. 수리과학문화의 대중화를 도모한다.

This event will feature the presence of two Ecuadorian women mathematicians, one working in academia and the other in industry. They will tell about their work history to an audience of students and professors of mathematics courses at the National Polytechnic School.
