Our Event is set to happen in Hybrid mode, with participants joining both online and in person on IISER Tirupati campus.
1. Panel Discussion (Online)
Topic - "Math for All: Bridging the Gap Between Abstract Theory and Undergraduate Curiosity"
Time: 4:00pm to 5:30pm
Women are underrepresented in high-level positions, in any hierarchical organization. Although, at least in the so called developed countries, equal rights are granted to men and women, still the gender gap exists. The global gender gap is 69%, with no country at 100%. Several countries experience small improvements, year-on-year, but in one third of the countries the national index does not improve or worsens.
'Mentoring the next generation' is a project run by female lecturers in the department of mathematics education in the University of Education, Winneba, Ghana. We provide mentorship for students more specifically female students to motivate them in pursuing mathematics related courses. Again we provide teachers training workshop for teachers on pedagogical strategies tailored to meet the needs of students in our context and all other issues pertaining to the teaching and learning of mathematics

Este día tiene como objetivos inspirar a las mujeres matemáticas de todo el mundo celebrando sus logros y fomentar un ambiente de trabajo abierto, acogedor e inclusivo para todos. Ver: https://may12.womeninmaths.org/
L'association sénégalaise des femmes en maths du Sénégal (SWMA) célèbrent la journée internationale des femmes en maths, le 11 Mai 2024.
En effet, cette journée du 12 mai a été créée en l’honneur de l’anniversaire de la naissance de Maryam Mirzakhani, éminente mathématicienne iranienne qui a obtenu la Médaille Fields en 2014. Aujourd’hui elle est la première à avoir bénéficié d’une telle récompense. Suite à son décès le 14 juillet 2017 à l’âge de 40 ans, une initiative de célébrer les femmes dans le domaine mathématiques a vu le jour.
Learning-Teaching-Training activity will be organised within the cooperation in the Erazmus+ project DigiSTEM
as on-line workshop on "Promoting Digital Learning in STEM Subjects".
Women cooperating in the project from 3 European countries - Slovakia, Finland and Romania will present their knowledge and expwerience gained during their pedagogical practise using active learning mehods supported by digital tools.
We will also open discussion on topics "gender awarness at your university" and "position of women in mathematics in your country".
The Brazilian Antenna of Mathematics of Fluminense Federal University, Brazil, once again, celebrates the International Women in Mathematics Day (May 12).
This time, we host the XII Discrete Mathematics and Applications Workshop (MDA 2024). MDA is a national scientific event that brings together researchers from renowned research centers in the field of Discrete and Combinatorial Mathematics, as well as students and teachers from public high schools.
