IISER TVM workshop

CWM is very excited about the upcoming third edition of the World Meeting for Women in Mathematics (WM)², on July 22nd, 2026, in Philadelphia. The (WM)² and the CWM Call are CWM’s main signature events, and while we are thrilled to host both initiatives in 2026, we have decided to temporarily postpone the launch of the CWM Call. We expect to open registration for the (WM)² in December 2025 and to launch the CWM Call later in 2026.
