China Girls Math Olympiad

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The China Girls Math Olympiad is a math competition with a proof-based format similar to the International Math Olympiad. It was originally organized in 2002 for teams of girls representing different regions within China. Later, the Chinese organizers decided to invite other nations to send teams of girls from their countries. Russia has participated at least since 2004. The United States first participated in 2007.
