Doha, November 28 – Qatar Foundation (QF) is set to host the World Math Team Championship (WMTC) Qatar 2024 from November 28 to December 1 at the Qatar National Convention Centre (QNCC). Supported by Visit Qatar, this international event brings together talented young mathematicians from around the world to compete and celebrate the universal language of math.

This year’s theme, “Algebra and Balancing,” honors Al-Khwarizmi, the Father of Algebra, emphasizing the values of balance and fairness. Students from local and international schools, including Qatar Foundation schools, will participate in three age-based divisions: Junior, Intermediate, and Advanced. Each team comprises six students and a teacher leader, competing in three rounds to test their problem-solving skills.

Sara Al-Hajri, Director of Student Affairs and Community Engagement at QF’s Pre-University Education, highlighted the championship’s broader goals. “This event is more than just a competition; it’s a platform to foster creativity, global friendships, and a deeper appreciation for math,” she said. Al-Hajri also emphasized the importance of international participation in promoting cultural exchange and global unity.

Visit Qatar’s partnership showcases the country’s role as a hub for education and cultural exchange, offering participants a unique blend of tradition and modernity. National partners, including Qatar Airways, Mowasalat, Qatar Rail, and Baladna, have also extended their support.

WMTC Qatar 2024 reflects Qatar Foundation’s commitment to nurturing future innovators and creating opportunities for young minds to connect and excel in a global context. The event inspires learning, collaboration, and cultural appreciation through mathematics.
