The Local Organizing Committee of the 49th Conference of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education is pleased to invite you to attend the conference to be held in Helsinki, Finland, from July 27 to August 1, 2026. The theme of the conference is “Sensing and making sense of mathematics”. This theme was chosen to emphasize the embodied perspectives on mathematics learning, which have been gaining increasing interest in this Millenium. Through our senses we interact with mathematical representations and the mathematical sense making happens in and through our body.
We wish to welcome you to the conference in July 2026 and hope that your visit and stay in Helsinki, Finland, will be exciting, interesting, and inspiring. Our goal is to make the PME 49 conference inclusive, welcoming for all, and scientifically successful.
