2. CENTRE INTERNATIONAL DE MATHÉMATIQUES PURES ET APPLIQUÉES INTERNATIONAL CENTRE FOR PURE AND APPLIED MATHEMATICS CIMPA’s mission To promote international cooperation for developing research in mathematics and its applications in higher education  to this end CIMPA organizes research schools and supports schools or networks in connection with continental mathematical societies  its actions are concentrated in locations where there is the will to further develop mathematics and where a research project is sustainable  a main endeavour is to maintain three equilibria: gender, geography and subject

3. CENTRE INTERNATIONAL DE MATHÉMATIQUES PURES ET APPLIQUÉES INTERNATIONAL CENTRE FOR PURE AND APPLIED MATHEMATICS CIMPA’s history CIMPA is: a non-profit organization created in 1978 by mathematicians, with offices in Nice, France mainly funded by Ministère de l’enseignement supérieur et de la recherche (France), the University of Nice-Sophia Antipolis (France), CNRS (France) and the laboratory of excellence CARMIN. More recently, it is also funded by Spain, Norway and the University of Neuchâtel (Switzerland). a category 2 centre of UNESCO since the 90’s

4. CENTRE INTERNATIONAL DE MATHÉMATIQUES PURES ET APPLIQUÉES INTERNATIONAL CENTRE FOR PURE AND APPLIED MATHEMATICS CIMPA’s organization CIMPA is a category 2 UNESCO centre Its General Assembly elects 6 individual members to the Governing Board, where there also permanent institutional members : UNESCO, French and Spanish Ministries, University of Nice The Governing Board selects its 4 member Bureau. CIMPA also has a Scientific Council and a Steering Council The Director is appointed by the Governing Board. The Director selects a Management team: several Regional Scientific Officers and an Officer in charge of Communication

13. CENTRE INTERNATIONAL DE MATHÉMATIQUES PURES ET APPLIQUÉES INTERNATIONAL CENTRE FOR PURE AND APPLIED MATHEMATICS CIMPA Research Schools Open call every year proposals for two-week schools come from everywhere some are encouraged by CIMPA members the Scientific Council analyzes, evaluates and make recommendations the Steering Council select about 15 to 20 research school projects Schools are organized locally with scientific and administrative help from CIMPA, in a North-South-South format

14. CENTRE INTERNATIONAL DE MATHÉMATIQUES PURES ET APPLIQUÉES INTERNATIONAL CENTRE FOR PURE AND APPLIED MATHEMATICS CIMPA Research Schools Young participants from neighboring countries apply Among the young accepted by the organizers and CIMPA, several receive full CIMPA financial support (at least 2/3 of CIMPA total support is for this purpose) Lecturers and speakers are not paid. In most cases, they use their own funding for travel CIMPA helps through letters, discussions with organizers, explanation to authorities, fund raising etc.

15. CENTRE INTERNATIONAL DE MATHÉMATIQUES PURES ET APPLIQUÉES INTERNATIONAL CENTRE FOR PURE AND APPLIED MATHEMATICS CIMPA Research Schools Average budget for a CRS: 40k€ CIMPA participation is about 12k€, mainly for young people from neighboring developing countries A four-page Road Map helps from the very beginning to have a successful RS with exchanges, discussions and to insure an open future for participants Each RS has two final reports. One from the main local organizers, the other from CIMPA representative.

16. CENTRE INTERNATIONAL DE MATHÉMATIQUES PURES ET APPLIQUÉES INTERNATIONAL CENTRE FOR PURE AND APPLIED MATHEMATICS CIMPA Research Schools Mathematics is a continuum from Fundamental to Applied, with application to other sciences. The themes of the Schools can be anywhere on this continuum, or a combination (Mixed combined with interactions). We have used the Classification by MathSciNet and Zentralblatt in collaboration with the Governing Board and the Management Team. 2012 : F=6 A=6 MI=5 2005 - 2011 2005 - 2011

18. CENTRE INTERNATIONAL DE MATHÉMATIQUES PURES ET APPLIQUÉES INTERNATIONAL CENTRE FOR PURE AND APPLIED MATHEMATICS New initiatives Short Mathematical Visits (with CARMIN) Launched in 2011. Intended for young mathematicians (pre or post-doc) interested in visiting one of CARMIN’s centres with a possible extension to other institutions in member countries (France, Norway, Spain or Switzerland). The application includes a precise program, a motivation letter and recommendations from confirmed mathematicians. A scientific committee will select candidates for 2012.
