Scholars and activists with expertise on these topics should submit a CV, a relevant writing sample and a one-paragraph description of research interests via e-mail by May 15, 2003 to Ms. Marcela Sabino at sabino@ssrc.org. Participants will receive an honorarium for their involvement. The program is particularly interested in participants from the developing world.
