Call for submissions: Annual Global Development Awards and Medals Competition 2008
Deadline: 5 September 2008
The Global Development Network is now accepting submissions for its annual competition for development research proposals/papers and development projects.
In this critical time for the world's natural resources, the mission of GDN has never been more important. To bring greater focus to environmental issues the world over, the competition theme this year is on Natural Resource Mangement and Development.
- If you have an interesting research proposal/paper on Natural Resource Management (NRM)?
- If you have an exciting idea for research on NRM?
- Or, if you are looking for funding to expand your on-going innovative development project that has benefited the local community, then this is the competition for you to apply!
The finalists win cash prizes and a round-trip air fare with all boarding and lodging expenses paid to travel to a different country where the finalists present their proposals/papers and showcase an interesting project on any development subject before an eminent jury for the final round. This year the final selection will be held in Kuwait. Awards are funded by the Government of Japan.
