The International Affairs Committee advises Council on matters relating to the Society's links with mathematical societies and organisations overseas, including the IMU, ICMI, ICIAM and the European Mathematical Society, and their Congresses. In addition, the LMS is the UK ‘adhering organisation’ with the International Mathematical Union and the International Affairs Committee is the UK Committee for Mathematics for discharging IMU business.
