A new call of the Project Support Program is open from June 1, 2018. The CDC primarily supports higher education and capacity building projects as well as local initiatives in mathematics and mathematical education, be they international, regional or local initiatives in developing countries.

The projects should start between January 1, 2019 and December 15, 2019.

In cases in which funding is granted, CDC grants will normally be in the range of EURO 1,000 to 5,000. Exact amounts will depend on the mathematical quality and impact and on budget constraints. The deadline for applications of projects starting during 2019 is September 10, 2018.

One the right side of this page you can find a list of the projects supported in previous years.

Each application must include
