A forward that might be of interest...


"The Council for International Exchange of Scholars is pleased to announced
the third year of the Fulbright New Century Scholars Program (NCS), a global
program for individual research and multidisciplinary/multinational
collaboration within the Fulbright Scholar Program.
The research theme for NCS III is "Toward Equality: The Global Empowerment
of Women."
NCS III will support accomplished scholars and professionals who wish to
share their work and build collaboration within and across issue
communities. Approximately 30 fellows will be selected from the U.S. and
around the world. NCS Scholars will conduct individual research, make an
international exchange visit of two to six months, and participate in a
program of seminars in the U.S. and abroad. In so doing, they will identify
and carry forward collaborative projects to advance research, education
and/or policy to improve the lives of women. Participants will receive
awards in the amount of $41,500, plus travel and per diem for orientation
and program seminars.
Deadline for receipt of applications at CIES is December 15, 2003 and
selections will be announced in February. The complete program description,
application guidelines and materials are now posted on the CIES website at
<http://www.cies.org/ncs/> "


Thank you,
Kelly Collins
