<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span lang=EN-GB
style='font-size:12.0pt'>In 2005 the Board of the International Development
Ethics Association first considered the idea of a Prize called the Denis Goulet
prize to honour the work of Denis Goulet, who can be regarded as the spiritual
father of International Development Ethics Association and indeed the newly
emerging discipline of development ethics. Tragically since then he has died,
after a long battle with cancer, on December 27<sup>th</sup> 2006. So we now
wish to rename the Prize the Denis Goulet Memorial Prize. Because we would like
to ensure a strong set of submissions for the first round of the Prize, we have
extended the deadline (from that announced in November 2006) and encourage
submissions of entries by the end of March 2007. It is also for us a great
sadness that Denis could not have seen the entries for this round.</span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span lang=EN-GB

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span lang=EN-GB
style='font-size:12.0pt'>Denis Goulet had been associated with the
International Development Ethics Association ever since its inception in <st1:country-region
w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Costa Rica</st1:place></st1:country-region> in
1987. He was an inspiration to many IDEA members, in that his writing promoted
a serious concern for ethical and normative issues in development over a period
when mainstream thinking had no interest in this approach. </span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span lang=EN-GB
style='font-size:12.0pt'>This prize will be offered from time to time, usually
in the period following an IDEA international conference, which is open to any
student in undergraduate and graduate programs, whether or not they have
attended the international conference. (But this does not apply to someone who
is in a professional position but also doing a degree at a later stage in their
career). We particularly want students from economically poorer countries to
take part in this, and hope that academics who hear about this prize will
encourage their students to enter.</span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span lang=EN-GB
style='font-size:12.0pt'>The winner of the prize will have the recognition by
IDEA of the standing of his or her essay in the eyes of the panel of IDEA
judges, and his or her essay will be posted on the IDEA website. Whilst we
cannot guarantee that it would be accepted in an academic journal, the
expectation of the judges in awarding the prize would be that the paper would
be of an acceptable standard, and a note to the effect that that the paper won
the IDEA Denis Goulet Prize in Development Ethics in 2007 (or whatever later
year it is) may be added to it. In addition IDEA will offer free registration
at the next international conference which the student can attend, along with a
modest honorarium.</span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span lang=EN-GB
style='font-size:12.0pt'>Papers should be submitted in the form of journal
article, fully referenced according to the Harvard method, between 4000-5000
words, double spaced, with 1” plus margins in A4 or letter size paper
format (but capable of being sent as an email attachment in Word). Just as
Denis Goulet recognised that development ethics is both about theory and
practice, a paper can cover either broad ethical <span class=GramE>issues</span>
about development in general, or it can also focus on particular cases, such as
particular development projects or the policies of a particular country. It is
NOT necessary that the paper should focus on or even mention the works of Denis
Goulet, but familiarity with his writing and approach may be an advantage.</span></font></p>
