The Women in Mathematics Special Interest Group (WIMSIG) has been an active special interest group of the Australian Mathematical Society since early 2013. It has a monthly newsletter and the website contains a lot of interesting further links.

In 2015, The Australian Mathematical Sciences Institute (AMSI) and the BHP Billiton Foundation launched Choose Maths, a five-year AUD $22 million national program that will turn around public perception of mathematics and statistics as a career choice for girls and young women.

Colectivo de mujeres matemáticas is a group of Chilean women mathematicians founded in 2014. It meets regularly to speak about the gender gap and the differences of opportunities faced by women in the region. The group has delivered talks at several high schools, speaking about what being a mathematician is and also addressing the stereotype that mathematics is a men game. It has also participated in some university events speaking about the gender gap in math and science. Besides the web page, the group also has a facebook group.

Mujeres en Computacion

“Somos una agrupación de mujeres académicas, estudiantes y profesionales trabajando en computación en Chile.”  (A group of academic women, students and professionals working in computation in Chile.) Part of the group Latinas in Computing founded in 2006.

Commission of Equity and Gender of the Colombian Mathematical Society

The Commission of Equity and Gender of the Colombian Mathematical Society, was created after the event Latin American Women in Mathematics, which was sponsored by the CWM in 2016.

Its objectives are:

- To promote the participation in mathematics of women and minorities in Colombia.

- To make visible the activity of women and minorities who work in mathematics in Colombia.

- To collect and disseminate information on scholarships, programs and calls for women and minorities working in mathematics in Colombia.

- To form alliances with various national and international organizations that promote the participation of women and minorities in science.

In order to achieve some of these goals, we have some campaigns about women in mathematics, such as #mujerESmatemáticas, where every other week, we share information about a colombian woman working in mathematics.

El Salvador does not yet have a formal organization but is taking action to address the gender gap in mathematics. In March, 2018, a meeting will be held, focussed on less developed countries in Latin America and the Caribbean, to propose concrete medium and long-term actions with the goal to change the landscape of mathematics in the region.

Ethiopia has as of yet no formal organization for women in mathematics but there are official activities to encourage young girls into STEM fields. The first regional workshop of the African Women in Mathematics Association was  held in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, in October 2018. In February 2020 a three-day training program for female mathematics teachers was organized with the goal of inspiring teaching methods that will motivate girls to enter STEM fields.

Femmes et mathématiques

The second oldest organization for women mathematiciens, femmes et mathématiques was founded in 1987.

"Peu de filles dans les filières techniques et scientifiques, peu de femmes dans les métiers scientifiques, en particulier en mathématiques, c’est de ce constat et de la volonté d’y remédier qu’est née en 1987 l’association femmes et mathématiques. Elle compte actuellement environ deux cent membres, pour l’essentiel des mathématiciennes travaillant à l’Université ou dans des organismes de recherche et des professeurs de mathématiques de l’enseignement secondaire ou de classes préparatoires …"

Since the early days of EWM there has been a German section of European Women in Mathematics. It has organised a number of national and international meetings; it also maintains an email distribution list (ewm-info) for Germany with information on job ads and other matters. The German Mathematical Society (DMV) has Diversity and Equal Opportunities as one of its fields of activities and cooperates closely with the German section of EWM in this context. The Emmy Noether Lectures were initiated by the Diversity and Equal Opportunities representative in 2008. The Arbeitskreis Frauen und Mathematik is a sub-unit of the Gesellschaft für Didaktik der Mathematik (= German society of math education) (GDM) and is mainly concerned with math education and history of mathematics. The International Association of Applied Mathematics and Mechanics (GAMM) is actively working on increasing the percentage of women among GAMM members as well as the visibility of female role models in mathematics and more specifically in mechanics. The organization encourages general discussion on the improvement of the basic conditions of women scientists in these areas.

Indonesia has as yet no formal organisation but hosted the CWM sponsored Women in Mathematics in Asia Forum July 28 2016, Bali, Indonesia which took place during the 7th Asia Mathematical Conference AMC2016. The forum aims to establish a network of women mathematicians in Asia.

Japan does not as yet have an official organization, but the  Mathematical Society of Japan (MSJ) has an Equal opportunity committee  with web site (in Japanese, for the moment). The committee’s main actions are  1. Support for mathematicians bringing their children to mathematical meetings, 2. Encouraging  high school girls to go on to mathematics(e.g. summer schools), 3. Membership in Japan Inter-Society Liaison Association Committee for Promoting Equal Participation of Men and Women in Science and Engineering (EPMEWSE).

A comprehensive report  in english "The Situation of Gender Equality in Mathematics in Japan" by Makiko Sasada (U. Tokyo）and Kenichi Bannai (Keio U) can de found here. Professors Bannai and Sasada run the  website Suri-joshi, created in 2016, for encouraging young women interested in Math.  “Suri" means mathematical sciences and “joshi” means girls. The website is mainly in Japanese but some articles are translated or originally written in English.  Suri-joshi workshops are orgaized  for elementary school and junior-high school girls and their mothers.  Suri-joshi also organized the women mathematicians photo exhibition hosted by The EU Delegation in Japan. The report (in japonese) was distributed at its opening ceremony.

Kenya Women in Mathematical Sciences (KWIMSA) is an association of Kenyan women in mathematics and related fields. It was founded following the birth of African Women in Mathematics (AWMA) and was registered in 2014. Its president is Josephine Kagunda (University of Nairobi).

• Support equal opportunities for women in mathematical sciences
• Support researches and information exchanges among women in mathematical sciences 
• Protect rights and improve welfare of women in mathematical sciences 
• Collect and publish researches in mathematical sciences 
• Serve the community by utilizing expert knowledge (popularization of mathematical sciences) 

The Mexican Mathematical Society has recently set up La Comisión de Equidad y Género (A commision for equality and gender). Under their initiative, Mexican women in mathematics had their first meeting in January 2014.

A second meeting, sponsored by CWM, was held in Oaxaca in August 2016.

The next meeting will be held in April, 2018.

Pakistani Women in Mathematics (PWM)

seeks to provide a stimulating intellectual environment for women academicians from all over Pakistan in different mathematical disciplines. Their first meeting was held at Quaid-e-Azam University, Islamabad in April 2014, followed by their second meeting at the University of Peshawar in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa in November 2017. The next meeting of PWM is being planned.

Panama does not have a formal organization for women in mathematics yet. Since May 2019, Panama has organized a monthly Math Carnival in different museums, parks and malls. The first Math Carnival took place on the International Day for Women in Mathematics on May 12th, 2019. Even though the Math Carnivals are open to the public, the purpose of this math outreach event is to inspire Panamanian youth, particularly girls, to study math by showing them real-life examples of Panamanian female mathematicians who are successful in their careers. Also, the Panama Pod of 500 Women Scientists was created in June 2019 with the goal of giving a collective voice for Panamanian women in science.
