Key Information: Meetings must connect participating Math Circles, rather than support a single Circle’s activities alone.
In-Person Collaboration Meetings supports face-to-face gatherings that bring Math Circles together to collaborate. Listed among the Math Circle Network’s organizer resources, the program funds meetings among Circles that are geographically close or connected by a common interest. Its focus is collaboration across participating groups, rather than activities undertaken by a single Circle alone.
The program gives Circles two ways to build connections: through local proximity or through shared interests. The focus of a gathering can reflect what brings the participating Circles together, with in-person contact central to the supported work.
