What is EAMO?

The East African Mathematical Olympiad is an annual high school mathematics contest targeting the Eastern Africa countries. The East African mathematical community came to an understanding that a regional competition would be of crucial value in enhancing appreciation of mathematics as well as a great tool for preparing students for the International Mathematical Olympiad, for further high school education in STEM subjects, and finally enabling young contestants to meet and share their passion for the subject.
