Indigo Foundation Development Praxis Award 2004

Each year Indigo Foundation (IF) offers one Development Praxis Award to support and promote links between development research and practice. The award of $500 is granted to a person or organisation undertaking research that IF believes will contribute, in a practical and accessible way, to community development. IF also provides non-financial support to award recipients, including access to our organisational experience and contacts and, as appropriate, introductions to communities that we are working with. In return, we may ask recipients to assist IF by reviewing a project to ensure that we are applying key theoretical principles in our work, submitting short research articles to our newsletter or speaking to IF volunteers and the management committee about development research. Research should be in an area relevant to our priority areas of health, education and agriculture and/ or our guiding principles of community ownership, sustainability, transparency and gender equity. Equally, we are interested in research into development strategy, in particular research relevant to IF's strategy of supporting community-based and managed non-government groups and organisations to plan, undertake and evaluate their own community development activities. Further information on IF and the award is available from our website.

Yale World Fellows Program

Launched two years ago as part of Yale's broader efforts to become more internationally focused, this initiative seeks to bring to Yale each year 16 to 18 emerging international leaders from any field for a special 15-week leadership program. Fellows have come from business, government, media, the military and nongovernmental organizations. This year's Fellows include a former minister of foreign trade from Colombia, an Internet entrepreneur from Australia, a Ugandan member of parliament who is running for president, a refugee doctor from Iraq, the director of Transparency International Slovakia, and a top policy advisor to British Prime Minister Tony Blair. We seek accomplished men and women of great promise from outside the United States who have demonstrated their capacity to make a difference in their own countries and societies. We are looking for candidates who would benefit from a period of time at Yale to explore critical world issues, sharpen their leadership skills, and build relationships with other emerging leaders. The Fellows will participate in a global issues seminar, have access to the entire selection of courses available at Yale, and have the help of a faculty advisor to develop independent study opportunities.
