The Wellspring

Oh, my. It’s been over two months since the last meaningful post. Oops; the Geneva trip really did some chaotic things to my schedule… (and we completely missed the ambitiously-named but otherwise unexceptional International Youth Day on 12 August), and now there’s a significant backlog of posts. Here goes:

The Dunlop Fellowships aim to promote Sir Edward Weary Dunlop’s vision for peace and prosperity in the region through interpersonal exchange and interaction.

Fellowships provide a grant of up to $15,000 (which can be used to cover airfares, insurance, and a contribution to a living allowance) for an individually-devised work placement, project, academic study or research program in an Asian country in fields including social service, local community development, public health and child, youth and family welfare and justice. The Fellowships must be carried out under the supervision of a host-country government body, university, non-profit community organisation or private sector enterprise.

Candidates must be Australian citizens between 21-40 years of age.

Applications close 5 September, 2007.
