CDC calls for applications for the following programs for mathematicians from developing and economically disadvantaged countries:
1. IMU-Simons Travel Fellowship Program supports collaborative research visits of mathematicians working in the developing world to a center of excellence in any part of the world for collaborative research in mathematics. Minimal length of a visit is one month.
This grant cannot support travel cost to attend workshops or conferences.

Applications have to be sent at least three months before the visit is starting. Applications are reviewed every four to six weeks.
2) Conference Support Program
This program gives partial support to conferences in the mathematical sciences The funds are for academic use only (travel or living expenses of invited speakers or participants coming from developing countries).
Conference organizers should apply at least four months in advance to the Grants Selection Committee of CDC but no later than three month in advance. Applications are reviewed every four to six weeks.

3) Abel Visiting Scholar Program
The Niels Henrik Abel Board and the International Mathematical Union invite applications from mathematicians professionally based in developing countries to visit an international research collaborator for a period of one month. The period is extendable for up to three months in the case of matching support from the host institution.
The program is designed for post doctoral mathematicians in the early stages of their professional careers. It is designed to offer the opportunity for a ‘research sabbatical,’ a necessary complement to teaching and other academic duties for mathematicians desiring to also sustain a viable research program.
The following deadlines apply:
• April 30, 2015 for research visits between September 1 and December 31, 2015
• August 31, 2015 for research visits between January 1 and April 30, 2016.
• December 31, 2015 or research visits between April 1 and August 31, 2016
