ICME15
CEOs, Presidents and National Leaders of Australia’s major mathematical-based societies* united in a consortium through 2018 to submit (October 2018) a bid for Australia’s hosting of the 15th International Congress on Mathematical Education (ICME15), 2024, at the International Convention Centre, Sydney, Australia. As part of the bidding process, the consortium hosted the ICMI delegates’ site visit in April 2019; at the time Australia was one of two shortlisted locations, the other, Prague.
ICME is run once every four years and was last hosted in Australia in 1984. Prof. Chris Matthews has been representing ATSIMA in this consortium. As a member of the national consortium, Chris is delighted to share the exceptional news that the collaborative bid for Australia (Sydney) to host the International Congress on Mathematical Education in 2024 has been successful.
