For Chrisa Snow

I was thinking of newsletters that I'm signed up with (as if I actually read half of them anyway) and this one seemed that could be interesting for you: new economics foundation (nef). It is Europe-based, but then again, there is nothing wrong with Europeans.

Plus they have a fellowship programme:

nef (the new economics foundation) and the International Institute for Environment and Development (IIED) are launching a Fellowship Programme to add to new thinking on the challenges of applying economics to environment and development.

The inaugural nef-IIED Fellowship prize will be awarded to an outstanding researcher through a competitive process. The Fellowship will be full-time, for a duration of four months and the successful candidate will divide their time between nef and IIED. This is an exciting opportunity for someone to make a real contribution to both theory and practice: to both help frame the debate and chart the way forward, and to play a part in moving us from an unsustainable to a more sustainable economic system.

The successful candidate will receive a bursary of up to £15,000 on successful completion of the four-month project.
