The Rio Symposium on Computer Education for Developing Countries, held in Rio de Janeiro early in August, 1972, drew 280 computing specialists. They came from 40 countries at virtually all stages of economic development. The majority of the attendance was from the host country, Brazil, with 155 members. The second largest group, and the most vocal in terms of presentations and comments, was from the USA with 29 members. All of the other countries had fewer than ten persons present.
