The school took place in the Faculté des Sciences of the University of Kinshasa, Kinshasa, from May 7 to May 18, 2018. It gathered about 50 participants:
7 mathematicians from several countries (France, Italy, Ivory Coast, Madagascar, USA) who gave 40 hours of lectures on selected topics as well as exercise sessions, 8 young participants from neighbouring countries (Benin, Cameroon, Congo-Brazzaville, Ivory Coast, South Africa), master students or PhD students, in number theory or cryptography, about 40 regular local participants from the University of Kinshasa and other universities in DRC, mathematicians or computer scientists, students or researchers, interested in the topics of this school. The conference succeeded particularly well in gathering people from different mathematical backgrounds with interests in computational aspects of number theory and cryptography. Attendance remained high until the end of the school. Participants took a very active part by asking questions during lectures or solving exercises during tutorial sessions.

This CIMPA School on control, inverse problems and geometry was held in Hammamet and featured 7 courses and seven lectures. The courses presented an opportunity for training in various fields like control and stabilization, inverse problems, Carleman inequalities, micro-local analysis and geometry. The different lectures were given in connections with these subjects.

The aim of the school was to give students and young researchers from the Central African subregion a training in algebraic topology and geometry, on topics that are the subject of current research. The Cameroonian participants came from different universities (Yaounde, but also Dschang, Maroua ...), foreign participants came mainly from the Republic of Congo. The courses focused on the foundations of algebraic topology, configuration spaces, opera theory, homology and cohomology, pre-algebra and information geometry.

The aim of the CIMPA school has been to provide a stimulating intellectual environment for researchers from Vietnam and neighborhood countries to interact. The school has been primarily oriented towards PhD students and young researchers working in the area of stochastic partial differential equations, stochastic dynamics, stochastic analysis and their applications. The 6 lecturers were renowned specialists in their fields and have given different views of stochastic analysis topics, although they have also paid special attention to emphasize the connections between the different topics presented in the school. The school ended with a one-and-a-half-day workshop, where mainly the students of the CIMPA school had the opportunity to present their research topics.

The CIMPA School on Combinatorial Commutative Algebra was held at Department of Mathematics, COMSATS Institute of Information Technology(CIIT), Lahore Campus. A total of 78 researchers have participated in the event. In each morning session there used to be three lectures of one hour each while evening sessions were dedicated to tutorials and short presentations by the participants. Ten students have presented their research while many students had actively participated in the tutorial sessions. There were two excursions including visits to the Army Museum, Badshahi Mosjid and Wagha Border (Pakistan India Border).

This school was the first active SEAMS school concerning numerical analysis and scientific computing of partial differential equations in Thailand. It testifies the ability of the Silpakorn Dept. of Mathematics to participate in South East Asia (ASEAN) cooperation. The conference introduced a basis of the theoretical and numerical mathematical analysis to study partial differential equations arising in image processing. Theoretical lectures were complemented by practical sessions through scientific Python software. A website and a chat group were created to facilitate exchanges between students, lecturers and organizers. A drive, accessible directly from the website of the school, contains the lectures, the python script and the list of exercises.

The conference titled 15th Discussion Meeting in Harmonic Analysis was held at the Department of Mathematics, Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore from December 18th to December 21st, 2017. A total of 85 participants attended the conference of which 16 were from outside India. A series of 4 lectures were given by Professor Andrei Lerner (Bar-Ilan University, Israel) on Sparse bounds and sharp weighted inequalities. There were 24 other talks (of 35 minutes duration) mostly by young mathematicians from India. The talks covered a wide range of topics in harmonic analysis.
