<div dir="ltr"><b>IMU Committee for Women in Mathematics (CWM)<br><br>Funding call for 2018</b><br><br>The IMU's Committee for Women in Mathematics (<a href="http://www.mathunion.org/cwm/" target="_blank">http://www.mathunion.org/<wbr>cwm/</a>) invites proposals for funding of up to €3000 for activities or initiatives taking place in 2018, aimed at either:<br><br>a)
Establishing or supporting networks for women in mathematics,
preferably at the continental or regional level, and with priority given
to networks in developing or emerging countries. Help could include,
for example, funding meetings, travel for individuals for consultation
purposes, or advice and support in creating websites. Please note that
CWM will not normally fund activities taking place in the same or nearby
location as one it has already funded in 2015, 2016 or 2017 (see <a href="http://www.mathunion.org/cwm/" target="_blank">www.mathunion.org/cwm/</a> for the list).<br><br>b)
Organizing a mathematical school open to all with all women speakers
and mainly women organisers.This type of mathematical school, which
should include a significant proportion of time devoted to background
and introductory material, can be a very effective way of showcasing the
contributions of women mathematicians and creating an opportunity for
female students to be in touch with women leaders, without excluding
male students. Expenses covered by CWM could include, for example, costs
for speakers, women organisers, or for women participants.<br><br>c) Other ideas for researching and/or addressing issues encountered by women in mathematics may also be considered. <br><br>Proposers
should write a short account (no more than two pages) explaining the
nature of their activity and how it fulfills one of the above aims, as
well as indications on how the CWM money would be spent and other
funding which may be available. There will be only one call for
applications regarding activities in 2018 with deadline 15 December,
2017.<br>Applications should be sent to <a href="mailto:applications-for-cwm@mathunion.org" target="_blank">applications-for-cwm@<wbr>mathunion.org</a> <br><br>Successful
applications will be informed no later than 31January, 2018. Depending
on demand, successful applications may not be funded in full. Successful
applicants will be asked to send a short report of the activity with
details of how the budget was spent before the end of 2018. <br><br>IMU-CWM committee <br><a target="_blank" href="http://www.mathunion.org/cwm/">http://www.mathunion.org/cwm/</a><br>September 2017<br clear="all"><br>-- <br><div class="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr">Matilde N.
