The online conference "Women in Mathematics", a RIMS conference of Kyoto University, took place from September 7th to 9th in 2022.

There were more than 200 participants, from several countries, one third of them being male.

The program featured mathematical talks, 1-minute speech by the Japanese female participants and discussion about women in mathematics including reports from CWM, EWM, WAM, MSRI and AWM. It was a good opportunity for participants to get to know each other and to learn about many good practices abroad.

Asia-Oceania Women in Mathematics (AOWM), the continental organization for women in mathematics in Asia and Oceania was established on August 1 2022 by an on line meeting.

The inaugural Ladyzhenskaya Prize in Mathematical Physics (OAL Prize) is awarded to Professor Svetlana Jitomirskaya “for her seminal and deep contributions to the spectral theory of almost periodic Schrödinger operators” in a session jointly organized by the World Meeting for Women in Mathematics and the Probability and Mathematical Physics conference on J

Joint Panel organized by the IMU Committee for Women in Mathematics (CWM) and the IMU Commitee on Diversity (CoD) during the virtual ICM2022.

Schedule: Friday July 8, 14:15-16:15 (CET)

Moderators: Motoko Kotani (CWM), Edray Goins (CoD)

Georgia Benkart  (December 30, 1947 – April 29, 2022) was known for her work in the structure and representation theory of Lie algebras and related algebraic structures.  A tribute to her contributions to her field, "Gems from the Work of Georgia Benkart", appeared in the Notices of the American Mathematical Society. 

May 12 was chosen for the Celebration of Women in Mathematics because it is the birthdate of Maryam Mirzakhani. The initiative was  proposed by the Women's Committee of the Iranian Mathematical Society and voted by a vast majority of attendees to (WM)², the World Meeting for Women on Mathematics on last July 31 in Rio.

The year 2022 marks the 100th birthday of Olga Alexandrovna Ladyzhenskaya. To celebrate this event and honor her, the Ladyzhenskaya Prize in Mathematical Physics (OAL Prize) was established.
