<p><strong>Dr. Arindam Bose</strong> is an Associate Professor in TISS, Mumbai and a Collaborative Prof in UNIFESP, Brazil. His research focus is on Ethnomathematics, math cognition and language diversity. He has published on ethnomathematics of the work practices of low-income communities with rich cultural resources. In ICME-14, he was an active member of the Topic Study Group (TSG) on Ethnomathematics. In ICME-13, he co-edited a volume on TSG work on language communication and math learning which has been published by Springer.</p>

<p>This edited volume examines ethnomathematics conceptions, pedagogical practices, and research from international perspectives in times of local and global challenges. The book explores connections between mathematical, cultural, political, and social practices toward more inclusive, holistic, creative, transdisciplinary and critical ways of engaging with knowledge and mathematical actions in society. In this edited book, the authors explore how ethnomathematics supports transformation of educational systems toward regaining cultural reclamation and self-confidence, challenges colonial logics for decolonizing and Indigenizing mathematics education, and engages with actions for critical and social justice issues.</p>

Engages with decolonizing practices and Indigenous ways of knowing and being Presents research from international perspectives including 13 countries Includes rich examples with implications for research and pedagogy
