1. To foster and facilitate research in mathematics and its applications across the Americas.
2. To disseminate advances from this research broadly and interactively to the global mathematical and scientific communities.
3. To build national and international capacity in the mathematical science workforce by providing targeted educational opportunities at key points in human intellectual development from middle school through postdoctoral training.
