Round Table Conference
The PakMS has organized a round table conference on 4th November 2004.
 
The future of mathematics in Pakistan is at stake. There are certain government policies, which do not suit mathematics. There is therefore a need to discuss these and put forward collectively our proposals to the government. It is for this purpose that the Pakistan Mathematical Society decided to organize a round-table conference on 4th November 2002. The agenda of the conference was:
 
  i.   Research Productivity Allowance,
  ii.   Criterion for rating mathematicians, and
  iii.   Involvement of mathematicians in the policy-making process.
 
As a result, a resolution comprising the point of view of the mathematical community was submitted to the Higher Education Commission, Pakistan Council for Science & Technology, the Ministry of Education, and the Ministry of Science and Technology.
 
Symposium
The PakMS has organized a symposium on Leonhard Euler on 12th June 2006.
 
A symposium was held at the auditorium of the Pakistan Science Foundation (PSF) to mark the 300th birth anniversary of the renowned Swiss mathematician, Leonhard Euler. The chief guest at the occasion was the deputy head of the Swiss Embassy in Islamabad, Mr. K.Obolensky.
