[Todos CMAT] [Todos_imerl] Fwd: UNESCO proclaims March 14 as the International Day of Mathematics

[Marcelo Fiori]

Complemento con algo que tenía escrito para compartir, y estaba esperando
el Ok desde Paris.

----------------

A raíz de una iniciativa de la IMU (y con apoyo de IMAGINARY), ayer la
UNESCO declaró el 14 de marzo como el Día Internacional de la Matemática
<https://www.idm314.org/>.

Una particularidad a destacar es que el logo, que fue el resultado de un
concurso internacional de la IMU, es de diseño uruguayo. Muchos de ustedes
conocen a los responsables porque han trabajado (y están trabajando) para
varios eventos de la comunidad.

Aquí están las declaraciones para la prensa (en inglés
<https://imaginary.org/sites/default/files/2019-11-26-press-release-idm-en.pdf>
y español
<https://imaginary.org/sites/default/files/2019-11-26-press-release-idm-es.pdf>
).

Saludos!
Marcelo
