Regular Lectures
There are five time slots for regular lectures in the congress timetable, each with approximately 15 regular lectures running in parallels. The regular lectures will all be given by prominent mathematics educators from different parts of the world who have been invited by the IPC. The lectures will cover a wide spectrum of topics, themes, and issues. The list below contains the names in alphabetic order of those who have already accepted the invitation and the prelimaniary title of the lecture.  The list will be updated and will eventually include final title and abstracts.
