[liberationtech] Fwd: Call for Applications: Fletcher Summer Institute 2015. Application Deadline February 16
Greetings Liberation Tech Community! I wanted to pass along the annual call for applications to the Fletcher Summer Institute for the Advanced Study of Nonviolent Conflict http://www.nonviolent-conflict.org/index.php/learning-and-resources/educational-initiatives/fletcher-summer-institute, a joint executive education program put on by International Center on Nonviolent Conflict http://nonviolent-conflict.org/ and The Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy. This rigorous, week-long interdisciplinary program explores the theory and practice of strategic nonviolent conflict (a.k.a. civil resistance) and how it has shaped both history, as well as the conflicts of today and into the future. The institute brings together a dynamic group of activists, scholars, journalists, policy makers, and members of civil society from all over the world for an intense and gratifying week! I hope you will share the announcement with friends and colleagues you think might be interested. If you or anyone you know has questions about the program or how to apply, please feel free to have them email me in the coming weeks.

Civil resistance campaigns for rights, freedom, and justice are capturing the world's attention as never before. Campaigns to protect democracy in Hong Kong, for women's rights in India, for indigenous rights in Latin America, for police accountability in the United States, against violence in Mexico, against corruption in Cambodia, against growing autocracy in Ukraine and against dictatorship in Burkina Faso are all examples in the last year of a profound global shift in how political power is developed and applied. Since 2006, over 400 participants from more than 90 countries have gathered at FSI to learn and share knowledge. The program is taught by leading international scholars, practitioners, organizers and activists from past and current struggles. It provides both a firm academic grasp of the subject of civil resistance as well as a practical understanding of the use of nonviolent struggle in a variety of conflicts for a wide range of goals. Organized in conjunction with the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy at Tufts University, the program offers a certificate in the Advanced Study of Nonviolent Conflict. * When: June 7-12, 2015Where: The Fletcher School, Tufts University, Boston, Massachusetts, USA Deadline:February 16, 2015 * - Click here to learn more and apply http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001fy-wfTrPJ5VKBSkIltAEiBwWOIfZbwSMCt_uVG7sOalAXVLprJWL2n9eLovMaMVnIV26OOBYRW2eZwOPTKVOBdjaUMOGYfOjtE2sqdjpvxWi_8VJznwnnhGPQbBmoEY7EjGw7YynxAFK4_aqTgSDQJtl3vexCS-9uUgsJ75_G-5brH34E4Lkin-nVcON-xv6n0Jcn2ey9-PMBeqOrj5PrPH_AlOIO4BXdWXaQS4pu5VrqeAeDTU3AUiu4TR02geofxa-iCOj_Futk5rIh7E-B1Jjd_7-dlP1gqQYRSmLKzRf3OzPugRaYg==c=qzTU21aeMbNKgmiJpV5BReWdF04gYYY5GPiN8bWdFFqIfVR5lYZzmA==ch=o0WdMbiegYoBoTstZFXOQQLeQz8N5GfpmUQs_EtM41ITNQcAmdtOzw== - Click here to download the FSI 2015 flyer http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001fy-wfTrPJ5VKBSkIltAEiBwWOIfZbwSMCt_uVG7sOalAXVLprJWL2udvFsm3rpPsU3JR84jTbKLPX8Kj8ZG9bCwgKCBhDC63FKAJqK0J-Vyrn11Yey-D-WTasrADkJmQ896fZYYGVz4mCTI5QTCDpbzowkOKhdrxE772jvKkMQpxBP1ydB_SzwVZe-p0ot60Vam-0_HBQ06oP0-F1mbu7nfCU-CVPbw-tDBSeHz3lJDT3EY4jRXJtcDanUIKzc6HE1eoNFPdF4l7G_RbugWgToI91e4tXj5xc=qzTU21aeMbNKgmiJpV5BReWdF04gYYY5GPiN8bWdFFqIfVR5lYZzmA==ch
