International Commission on Mathematical Instruction
Belgian Division
Belgium is a multi-language country, organised in regions and communities. Education policy is developed at the community level, hence language related.
On this page we gather people, organisations and initiatives on the level of mathematical education and instruction. If you feel the need to discuss some of these topics, please contact the listed persons directly.
