Kathmandu : In the field of education, Embark UnMath has been transforming the traditional way of learning and teaching mathematics. By presenting complex mathematical concepts creatively and connecting them with everyday life, the institution has now launched the Global Math Debate League (GMDL) in Nepal for the first time; a program that unites mathematical thinking and debate. Its primary goal is to establish mathematics as a universal language of thought and dialogue, beyond just numbers and formulas.
The Global Math Debate League aims to turn mathematics into a medium of ideas, reasoning, and conversation. The program encourages students to view mathematics not only as a tool for solving problems but also as a means to express their ideas and demonstrate creativity.
Speaking about the Global Math Debate League, Divesh Bathija, co-founder of Embark UnMath, said: “The Global Math Debate League reflects our belief that mathematics is much more than calculations; it’s an exciting journey of logical thinking and problem-solving. This league provides a national platform for students to experience learning beyond the boundaries of traditional classrooms.”
This year, GMDL is engaging over 5,000 students from schools across Nepal in a three-stage structured competition: Screening Round, Regional Selection, and National Final Round. The competition emphasizes collaboration, creativity, and critical thinking. Through this process, students sharpen their analytical skills, build confidence in public speaking, and gain a deeper understanding of how mathematics applies to real-world situations.
By combining the art of mathematics and dialogue, the Global Math Debate League empowers a new generation of leaders who can think analytically and communicate effectively. Along with strengthening students’ academic foundations, the program celebrates mathematics as a pathway to creativity, innovation, and leadership. As Nepal’s first initiative of its kind, GMDL is building a national community of young debaters, thinkers, and problem-solvers, creating individuals who see mathematics not merely as a subject, but as a way of thinking and living.
Founded in 2012, UnMath School is a pioneering educational institution that has been redefining the way mathematics is taught in schools. Its expanded initiative, Embark UnMath, furthers this global mission through programs such as the Global Math Debate League, Math Marathon, and Space Math, designed to make mathematics engaging, meaningful, and transformative for learners of all ages.
