Dear Sir/Madam,

Sub: Press Release- Outreach Scholarship-reg

CED is happy to announce its Outreach Scholarship. The Outreach Scholarship is 
aimed at linking the documentation effort at CED, to concerned activists and student, 
who are debating the development and change scenario and looking to study and 
contribute new ideas. This yearning is connected to CED recent pro-active 
documentation efforts, which are trying to examine the State of the Art, and articulate 
new perspective and directions for the NGO sector, peoples' movements and concerned 
political and economic efforts. 
The scholarship is therefore meant for
1. social workers/NGO activists in organisations: who want to take sometime 
out for studying reading.
2. Students/scholars of social work/development/community media who want to 
take time out for field study. 

The scholars are expected to do self-study at CED and elsewhere. In the 
process of self-study, Scholars are also expected to add to CED 
documentation, using the books budget and their electronic downloads and 
notes. The detail of the scholarship is attached below.

We would like you to publish this through the esteemed columns of your 
newsletter/magazine, for the benefit of people working in the area of 
development.
Interested persons may please write to us or email us at 
scholars at doccentre.org.

Thanking you
Yours truly,
Sd
For CED

    About the CED Outreach scholarship
The Centre for Education and Documentation (CED) is an information and 
documentation Centre involved in collecting and making available information 
developmental issues to students, teachers, activists, social workers and 
journalists.
As a proactive documentation Centre, CED is interested in documenting, 
sharing and disseminating critical information on the state of the art, 
experiences and initiatives that are evolving as alternatives to the present global 
order. The scholarship is an invitation from CED to become partners or fellow 
travelers in the journey for just and sustainable alternatives. Through this series 
of scholarships, CED wishes to reach out to young activists, and concerned 
students to promote re-thinking, analysis and approaches to the current issues 
and concerns. 

The main subject areas of interest are:
*   Development, Alternatives and Social Transformation; 
*   Globalisation and Civil Society, Perspectives, Trends and Analysis of 
    issues effecting development and social change.
*   NGOs. Peoples Movements and Political processes
*   Labour, Gender, Environment, social violence, governance and 
    empowerment.
The Scholarship is not a research grant or a fellowship. It is primarily seen as 
support to individuals who would like to take time off (from their routine 
activities) and spend some time working on issues that are relevant and 
important today. 
This series of scholarship has been possible thanks to a grant through the Sir 
Ratan Tata Trust. A committee consisting of R Singh, W Mendoza, R Bakshi 
& J D’Souza will determine the award of the scholarship.
If interested, send us a brief write–up along with the financial requirements and 
time frame to CED. Mark the cover "OUTREACH SCHOLARSHIP". You can 
also meet any of the committee members for a discussion and share your ideas.
