Dear CWM ambassadors

As you are certainly aware, ICM Rio 2018 is arriving soon. CWM is involved
in the organization of the first World Meeting for Women in Mathematics
(WM)^2, a satellite meeting to ICM taking place on tuesday 31 july. The
website of (WM)^2 is going to be launched very soon. Moreover we have also
a CWM panel inside ICM, entitled " The Gender Gap in Mathematical and
Natural Sciences from a Historical Perspective" on thursday 2  august
followed by a reception.

If you want to attend and you belong to a country which is invited to
participate to the  ICM 2018 Open Arms Travel Grants Program, please apply
*before 15 october 2017* (see list of countries and details here
http://www.icm2018.org/portal/en/travel-grants-program). Applications from
women wanting to attend both ICM and (WM)^2 will receive a special
attention.  Those should register to (WM)^2 by the end of October 2017.
Note that registration to (WM)^2 is not open yet. I shall inform you as
soon as (WM)^2 website is launched.

Be kind enough to distribute the information in your country and scientific
network, encouraging particularly women to attend.

All the best

Marie-Francoise Roy, CWM chair

PS The Organizing Committee has launched the "Open Arms program", which
offers 635 travel grants for mathematicians, young and senior, from
developing countries to attend the Congress; 200 of those grants will be
for mathematicians working in Latin-American countries other than Brazil.
The program is sponsored by IMPA and the Brazilian Mathematical Society,
alongside with a generous offer of 135 travel grants from the International
Mathematical Union.

The timeline for application and selection procedures is as follows.
- Applications will be received from *April 15, 2017 to October 15, 2017*
- The list of grantees will be published by *November 30, 2017
