The Vision of the conference is ‘To celebrate the inspirational contributions of black role models to the field of Mathematics and Mathematics Education’. There will be a balance of technical talks by internationally renowned black speakers that include some detail of career paths and experience to provide a testimonial dimension. We plan to achieve a balance of career stage and gender.
Speakers: Angela Tabiri, Robin T Wilson, Teresa Senyah, Justice Moses Kwaku Aheto, Imoleayomide Ajayi, Flavia Santos, Nathalie Ayi, Kim Sellers
Timings and speakers are subject to change.
