Mathematics is everywhere – Proclamation by UNESCO of March 14 as the International Day of Mathematics

To celebrate the beauty and importance of mathematics and its essential role in everyone's life the International Mathematical Union (IMU) has led the project to have UNESCO proclaim March 14 as the International Day of Mathematics (IDM). On November 26, 2019, the 40th General Conference of UNESCO approved the Proclamation of March 14 (Pi Day) as the International Day of Mathematics.

The IDM is communicated and supported by the IDM website, which is hosted by IMAGINARY, a non-profit organization to communicate modern mathematics. The website and the communication are financed by the Klaus Tschira Foundation, which supports natural sciences, mathematics and computer science in Germany.
