Mathematicians Scholarship for Mathematicians from Developing Countries

Organisation

Commission for Developing Countries

---

Description

Every year, thousands of scientists migrate from developing countries in search of educational opportunities and better intellectual environments. Some of these individuals acquire singular expertise and find themselves engaged in universities, research laboratories and international organizations outside their original countries. There are reasons to believe that, given an opportunity, many of these individuals would be willing to share their expertise with scientists and students in developing countries. Who can participate? Mathematicians with a PhD who were born and raised in Africa and are now full-time employed outside of Africa as professors in mathematics. Mathematics academic units at any university in Africa who want to build long term connections with African Diaspora Mathematicians and hopefully the home institution of the Diaspora Mathematician.
