For many years it has been a tradition that the ICM offers a Travel Grants Program for mathematicians from developing countries. Usually the applications have been divided into regional groups as well as into young mathematicians and senior mathematicians.

The ICMs are the largest mathematical conferences worldwide. They cover all areas of mathematics and are held once every four years. IMU decides the location of the ICM and assists the organization of the International Congress of Mathematicians. The first ICM took place in Zurich, Switzerland in 1997. Further information about the ICM can be found here.

The CDC offers two scholarship schemes to support graduate studies, in a developing country, leading to an Master or PhD degree in the mathematical sciences.
