The Committee for Women in Mathematics (http://www.mathunion.org/cwm/) invites proposals for funding of up to €3000 for activities or initiatives  taking place in 2016, and aimed at establishing or supporting networks  for women in mathematics, preferably at the continental or regional level, and with priority given to networks and individuals in developing or emerging countries. CWM’s help could include, for example, funding meetings, travel for individuals for consultation purposes, or advice and support in creating websites. Other ideas for researching and/or addressing problems encountered by women in mathematics may also be considered.

Proposers should write a short account (no more than two pages) explaining the nature of their activity and how it fulfills the above aims, as well as indications on how CWM money would be spent and other funding which may be available. There will be one call for applications regarding activities in 2016 with deadline of 15th January 2016. It is anticipated that further calls will be made in subsequent years.

Applications should be sent to: This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.

Successful applications will be informed no later than February 29, 2016. Depending on demand, successful applications may not be funded in full. Successful applicants will be asked to send before the end of 2016 a short report of the activity with details of how the budget was spent.
