The WorldWID Fellowship Program in this announcement supports opportunities
for U.S. citizens for assignments in Africa, Asia, Near East, Latin America,
the Caribbean, and the NIS (former Soviet Republics) region. Consequently, I'm
posting to several listserves. My apologies in advance for cross-posting.
For additional information about the Program, please contact the e-mail
address provided in this announcement.
******************************************************************************
WORLD-WID FELLOWSHIP OPPORTUNITIES
WorldWID provides a unique opportunity for US citizens who are technical
experts to receive intensive training in gender analysis and the field of
Women-In-Development (WID) and to apply that training through a 3-10 month
field assignment in a central office of the United States Agency for
International Development (USAID) or USAID field mission overseas. Fellows
are being recruited from a wide range of academic and non-academic
institutions including NGOs, U.S.
businesses, professional firms (law, engineering, medicine), and universities
that have skills related to USAID's strategic concerns with: (1) democracy and
governance; (2) economic growth; (3) girl's primary education; (4)
environment; (5) health, population and nutrition. Approximately 8
fully-funded fellowships will be awarded each year. Both men and women who
are U.S. citizens are encouraged to apply; no previous WID training is needed.
Since Fellows are required to have a permanent job to return to, they must
demonstrate strong institutional support. Special attention is being focused
on recruiting Fellows from U.S. minorities. Each fellowship includes a
stipend of $2500 per month as well as domestic and international travel
connected with the grant and some additional support for overseas expenses.
The normal period of appointment is 12 months although shorter-term
assignments will be considered.
Deadlines for application for 1996/1997 are: August 15 and October 1, 1996.
Future deadlines (for 1997-1998 and 1998-1999) will be March 1. A more

I thought ecofeminists rejected the notion of "development?!"
