2020 Land Accelerator Program for African Entrepreneurs

The Land Accelerator has been held twice in Africa and is returning to Nairobi for the third time in October this year. The program will also be launching in South Asia in June 2020 and in Latin America in September 2020. The Land Accelerator’s second African cohort met from September 7-12, 2019, in Nairobi, Kenya. The 14 startups were chosen from 335 applicants and represent 8 African countries. Each received a EUR 3,000 grant in addition to a travel stipend. The Land Accelerator is an exciting four-month program and curated network for entrepreneurs who restore degraded forests and farmland. It is anchored by an intensive week-long workshop when the cohort meets in person. There is no fee to join, and the program does not take equity.

Conference Support Program for Mathematical Science based conferences organized in developing or economically disadvantaged countries

This program gives partial support to Mathematical Science based conferences organized in developing or economically disadvantaged countries (CDC Definition).
In a few cases the program also supports a few international conferences in developed countries in order to invite mathematicians from developing countries.
In both cases the CDC Conference Grant can only be used to cover travel and accommodation cost for invited speakers and participants from developing countries.
The Grant Selection Committee (GSC) consists of the CDC Secretary for Grants Selection as Chair and has seven other members.
This program is administered by IMU-CDC and partially supported by the Niels Henrik Abel Board.

Abel Visiting Scholar Program for African mathematicians

The International Mathematical Union invites applications from mathematicians professionally based in developing countries to visit an international research collaborator for a period of one month.
In case the length of the visit exceeds one month, the candidate should provide evidence of financial support from the host institution to cover the living expenses beyond the first month.
The program is designed for post doctoral mathematicians in the early stages of their professional careers. It is designed to offer the opportunity for a ‘research sabbatical,’ a necessary complement to teaching and other academic duties for mathematicians desiring to also sustain a viable research program.
The Abel Visiting Scholar Program is fully funded by the Abel Prize in mathematics.
Usually up to 3 Grants are available per
