UNDP offers human development fellowships
The Asia Pacific Regional Human Development Initiative Regional Centre in Colombo, Sri Lanka, which is part of the United Nations Development Program announced the opening of two types of human development fellowships for citizens of Asia Pacific countries. Application deadline is 30 April 2006.
Human Development Academic Fellowships: For young doctoral students who are at an advanced dissertation stage working on a topic related to human development -- theoretical, applied or policy-oriented. The idea is to push the boundaries of the discipline by encouraging creative, high quality academic work.
Human Development Media Fellowships: To support mid-career media professionals to communicate on human development themes in mainstream media. The theme for this year's fellowship is 'International Trade and Human Poverty in Asia and the Pacific'.
