  1. The EMS Meetings Committee calls for nominations or proposals of speakers and scientific events in 2022. The Executive Committee of the EMS, via its Meetings Committee, is willing to provide support that may cover the cost of the EMS Lecturers and of Distinguished Speakers, and to give partial support to the organization of EMS Weekends and of EMS Summer Schools of high scientific quality and relevance. Only a limited number of events can be supported. The EMS is committed to increasing the participation of women in research in mathematics and its applications. Efforts towards giving place to mathematicians of both genders and towards integrating early career mathematicians will be particularly appreciated. Events within Europe and speakers with profound relations to European academic institutions will be given preference. Please submit your proposals before September 30, 2021. More information here.

  2. In order to fulfil its mission, the EMS Committee for European Solidarity will undertake actions to foster the development of mathematics in economically less-favoured regions within the geographical area of EMS membership. For this purpose and among other initiatives, the Committee awards travel grants to young mathematicians for presenting results at conferences or attending courses, or for research stays in foreign countries, normally up to a maximum of 900 euros in each case or 500 euros for trips within Europe; offers funding for the organisation of training events and conferences, normally up to a maximum of 3000 euros for each activity and devoted to early-career participant grants. Please submit your applications before September 30, 2021. More information here.

In order to submit your application for either scheme, please login or register at the top of the EMS website. (The new website is not connected to the old webpage.)
