The Mathematical Sciences and Education in the Developing World

The Capacity and Network Project (CANP) is a major development focus of the international bodies of mathematics educators and mathematicians (International Commission on Mathematical Instruction, ICMI and International Mathematical Union, IMU). The project has received support by UNESCO and the International Council of Scientific Unions (ICSU), now International Council of Science (ISC) as well as regional governments and institutions.

ICMI has a substantive interest in ensuring that its resources and influence extend to any country that is able to mobilize the elements of its mathematics education enterprise to make productive use of this connection. In line with this goal, and cognizant of issues of ‘voice', is the building of connections and relationships across countries and communities of mathematics education.

Since the establishment of ICMI during the fourth International Congress of Mathematicians held in Rome, 1908 the Executive Committees of the Commission (originally known as "Central Committees") have succeeded one another at intervals of approximately four years.  A list of previous members and officials appears below. The following sources were used in the gathering of this material:

The current Procedures for the Election of the ICMI Executive Committee have been adopted by the General Assembly of the International Mathematical Union held in Santiago de Compostela, Spain, August 19-20, 2006.
