Ethnomathematics Journal is an international, open-access journal for research reports, theoretical reviews, ideas, and innovations in mathematics education, with a particular focus on ethnomathematics.

Focus

• Mathematics as a cultural and human activity, shaped by social practice, history, and different knowledge systems.
• Teaching that connects formal mathematics with the cultural experiences of learners, so that lessons are more inclusive and culturally responsive.
• Documenting and integrating local and indigenous mathematical knowledge, especially from Indonesia and Asia.
• Equity and cultural sustainability in mathematics education.

Scope
