EWM Bulgaria 2011-2013

Unfortunately, the financial crisis in Bulgaria becomes deeper and this influences to a great extent the members of the Bulgarian section of EWM. Nearly every one of our members is working at a University or at a school and has very low income. At the beginning we had 35 members, now only a few women mathematicians are interested in membership. In 2013 only 2 members paid their membership fee (6 Euro per year) in comparison with 2007 when 20 paid their membership fee.

We continue to meet twice a year. Between our meetings we exchange via email information about international meetings, open positions, etc. with the members of the section but unfortunately, there are no funds for participation in conferences. We also have regular meetings with Bulgarian mathematicians who work and live permanently abroad.
