The Center for U.S.-Mexican Studies' Environment and Sustainable Development
Program invites applications for visiting research fellowships at the
predoctoral and postdoctoral levels, as well as for environmental professionals
of any nationality working in the policy arena or in non-governmental
organizations. Each year four or five environmental scholars are selected from
an international competition to participate with a larger community of
Mexicanist scholars for six- to ten-month residential appointments to conduct
the write-up stage of original, applied research. Since its inception in 1998,
this multi-disciplinary program has provided a unique opportunity to support the
creation of a cadre of environmental experts from a variety of critical sectors
who can have an influence over the regional planning process.
We are currently soliciting interdisciplinary research proposals focused on the
environment and sustainable development along the U.S.-Mexico border. Successful
candidates will participate as Visiting Research Fellows in the Center's
project, "Equity and the Environment: Exploring Sustainable Alternatives in the
U.S.-Mexico Border." Fellowship research should be focused on border
environmental issues related to: transboundary resources (water, energy, air);
natural resource management and land use; environmental justice; sustainable
community development; environmental regimes in the border region. Projects
focusing on vulnerable populations, or that take a gender perspective on any of
the topical areas are encouraged. Successful candidates can begin residency as
early as September of 2003 and as late as January of 2004.
