Abstract

The inspiration for the subject of my contribution to celebrate Ubiratan D’Ambrosio firstly came to me when reading the article (D’Ambrosio, 2003). This was a concrete opportunity
to reflect on how important the establishment of the tradition of International Congresses of Mathematicians has been not only for projecting the community of mathematicians into the
modern pattern of current scientific research, but also for strengthening national mathematical communities. U. D’Ambrosio has been a chief character in the story of making mathematical research really international, as officially acknowledged in ICM-1978 held in Helsinki (Proceedings, Vol. 1, p. 9).
