Canadian International Development Agency, South Africa Special Fund

UNIVERSITY OF PENNSYLVANIA - AFRICAN STUDIES CENTER

The following funding opportunity is open to Canadian institutions and South African collaborating organizations. LABOR-L would welcome suggestions for collaborative ventures involving electronic networking which involve South African labour organizations, NGO's dealing with worker/livelyhood issues, and academic or research institutions. This is a call for expressions of interest.

It is an excellent opportunity to extend the use of electronic networking in the dual causes of labor and access to the virtual workspace. Post ideas and suggestions either to LABOR-L, or directly to me .
