Prof. Elinor Ostrom International Fellowship on Practice and Policy on Commons
It is our pleasure to share with you the call seeking applications for the 'Prof. Elinor Ostrom International Fellowship on Practice and Policy on Commons'. Being announced by the Foundation for Ecological Security (FES) and the International Association for the Study on the Commons (IASC), the fellowships are aimed at promoting sound policies for the governance and management of Commons in different parts of the world. FES is particularly interested to receive papers which describe and critically assess practical strategies and experiences in these aspects of securing the commons and commoners rights. The fellowships are open to practitioners, researchers, policy makers from across the world. A note on the call for fellowships is attached fro your reference. At a personal level, I feel that some of the experiences that you narrated yesterday ( for eg: the Phillipines story) could easily qualify for the award. All applications should be sent to [email protected]. The application should include: * A brief proposal clearly stating the aspect of the proposed research, the applicant's perspective on this subject, and expected output. * An abstract of the paper (300 words), * A detailed CV and * Three references attached with recommendation letters from each of concerned individuals. Though proposals from all interested individuals would be considered, preference would be given to those proposals whose abstracts are accepted for the 14th IASC Conference. The last day for submitting abstracts for the 14th IASC Conference is 31st October 2012. We request you to apply as well as share the announcement with your colleagues and other listservs who might find it interesting.
