Ethnomathematics Journal

Ethnomathematics Journal is an international open-access forum that publishes research reports, theoretical review, ideas, or innovations in mathematics education including ethnomathematics referring to the works of D'Ambroisio and colleagues. The journal views mathematics as a cultural and human activity shaped by social practices, historical development, and diverse knowledge systems.

Ethnomathematics examines mathematical ideas and practices embedded in cultural traditions, indigenous knowledge, and everyday activities such as counting, measuring, designing, and problem-solving. By connecting formal mathematics with learners’ cultural experiences, ethnomathematics promotes inclusive, meaningful, and culturally responsive mathematics education.

Given the cultural diversity of Indonesia and the broader Asia region, the journal emphasizes research that documents, analyzes, and integrates local and indigenous mathematical knowledge into education. The journal aims to advance global scholarly dialogue on equity, cultural sustainability, and innovative mathematics teaching and learning through rigorous peer-reviewed publications.

This journal is devoted to lecturers, researchers, school teachers, and teacher educators who seek to publish original scholarly contributions, including empirical studies, theoretical explorations, innovative practices, and hypothesis-driven research. Manuscripts may employ diverse scientific and methodological approaches, provided they demonstrate novelty, scholarly significance, methodological rigor, comprehensiveness, and critical engagement with relevant literature and perspectives. Authors are encouraged to present their work with international readability, ensuring clarity, accessibility, and relevance to a global academic audience.
