USAID’s Africa Bureau expects to have a limited number of Summer 2009 internships available in a few of our overseas missions in sub-Saharan Africa as well as in Washington, D.C. This is an excellent opportunity for outstanding students interested in pursuing careers in international development.

From USAID’s Website:

Application requirements for both Africa and Washington are:

  • a letter of interest;
  • a 1-page essay (statement of intent) outlining his/her particular strengths; discussing what development issues interest them; and explaining their expectations for the internship;
  • two letters of recommendation from faculty (employers are also acceptable); and
  • additional information that is required by the on-line application form.

Applicants should be studying relevant disciplines (public policy, economics, journalism, agricultural economics, agronomy, public administration, law, management, political science, health, etc.).

ASIL Participate: Call for Scholarly Papers

The American Society of International Law calls for submissions of scholarly paper proposals for the inaugural ASIL Research Forum to be held at UCLA Law School on November 4-5, 2011.

The Research Forum is a new initiative of the Society aimed at providing a setting for the presentation and focused discussion of works in progress by its members. The Spring Annual Meeting does this in part through its “works-in-progress” sessions, but the Research Forumaims to do this exclusively.

 

The Research Forum will be held in the fall and, as possible, coordinated as an integral part of the Fall ASIL Mid-Year Meeting. All ASIL members are invited to attend the Forum, whether presenting a paper or not.

 

Interested participants should submit a proposal (preferably 500, and no more than 1,000, words in length) summarizing the scholarly paper to be presented at the forum.  Papers can be on any topic related to international and transnational law. Works-in-progress are particularly encouraged.  Interdisciplinary projects, empirical studies, and jointly authored proposals are welcome.  Member submissions should be sent to 2011forum@asil.org by April 30.
