June 12-20, 2002
East Africa in Transition: Economy, Ethnicity, and Ecology
The Global Partners
Project is pleased to announce the third interdisciplinary faculty seminar
at the International Learning Center at the University of Nairobi. The
seminar is open to faculty from any of the member institutions of the
ACM, ACS, or GLCA, as well as to faculty from The University of Nairobi
and other East African Universities.
Applicants may be of any discipline, at any professional level, with any
level of experience in East Africa or African Studies. Preference will
be given to former Nairobi seminar participants, members of the Task Force,
and newly hired faculty. The seminar itself will reflect the interests
and expertise of the host faculty at the University of Nairobi and those
chosen from the US to attend; the topics and sessions will be developed
in consultation with our partners in Kenya. Participants will present
their own work, either formally or as discussion leaders/facilitators.

Global Partners Project will fund overseas travel and lodging expenses
for faculty members from ACM, ACS, and GLCA colleges. In addition, an
institutional contribution of five hundred dollars and support for
travel from the home campus to the point of departure will be required
for each participant. By accepting funding, participants agree to
attend the entire seminar.
