“Women in SAGE-Tunisia,” is part of the long-standing tradition of SageMath conferences (https://wiki.sagemath.org/Workshops). SageMath is an open-source mathematics software developed by the research community, students, and engineers. It heavily relies on voluntary contributions and occasional research project funding.
We have already organized WIS-Africa days in several countries (Senegal, Nigeria, Uganda, and Burundi), all of which have been very successful (see for example: http://africanwomeninmath.org/activities/conference). Participants not only improved their programming skills and contributed to the software, but also established research collaborations and gained confidence in their abilities.
We believe that the Women in Sage days held in various African countries, with the support of the African Women in Mathematics Association (AWMA), represent a valuable opportunity for the entire community.
During the Workshop (30 September – 04 October 2025):
From Tuesday to Friday, participants will work in groups and attend several talks and panels focused on Women in Mathematics, including presentations of organizations such as AWMA, EAUMP, UGAWOM, and CIMPA, as well as information on available opportunities.
On Saturday, participants will present the projects they worked on throughout the week.
