[Interpretationandmethods] FW: [Tps] FW: Announcement of Funded Workshop on Global Processes & NonGovernmental Public Action

[Dvora Yanow]

Workshop on 'Global Processes and Non Governmental Public Action'
Budapest, 16-20 July 2007.

Applications are called from post-doctoral and doctoral candidates for a workshop funded by the ESRC on non-governmental public action (NGPA). The workshop addresses the impact and influence of advocacy networks, campaigns and coalitions, think tanks, universities and research institutes, trades unions, peace groups, social forums, rights-based groups, social movements and corporate citizenship. The specific concern is the way in which these bodies are engaged in global and regional affairs through transnational action, the policy implications of their actions, their development impact and how they seek influence through persuasion (research, analysis, advocacy) and through activism (lobbying, protest and rebellion).

Travel and accommodation will be supported for some successful applicants.  Further information at: http://www.sun.ceu.hu/3Courses/courses.php
