PEACEBUILDERS


The Cambridge Foundation for Peace (CFP) announces a call for papers
that explore the role of diasporas as transnational actors in
preventing violence, crisis response, or post-conflict peacebuilding.
The competition is open to public policy professionals and academics
(including graduate students). A $3000 prize will be awarded for the
winning proposal, which will be evaluated by CFP's Officers and Program
Staff. The CFP peace prize will recognize papers that contribute to
systematic research on diasporas. In particular, the paper should
concentrate on identifying and specifying the mechanisms by which
diasporas can be engaged in policy planning and implementation. The
regional and/or country focus is open, but preference will be give to
Southeastern Europe and/or the Eastern Mediterranean.


The CFP, whose Advisory Board members include the economists Amartya
Sen and John Kenneth Galbraith, Queen Noor of Jordan, and Greek Foreign
Minister George Papandreou, will distribute the winning paper to its
worldwide audience of policymakers, political leaders, academics, and
journalists.
