Cambridge Foundation for Peace to Award Peace Prize for
        Paper on Diasporas

 Deadline: April 1, 2003

 Founded in 1999, the Cambridge Foundation for Peace
 ( http://www.cfp-web.org/ ) is dedicated to sustainable
 peace building in southeastern Europe and the eastern
 Mediterranean region. CFP has announced a call for papers
 that explore the role of diasporas as transnational actors
 in preventing violence, crisis response, or post-conflict
 peace building.

 The competition, which is open to public policy profes-
 sionals and academics (including graduate students), will
 award a $3,000 prize to the winning paper. The competition
 is open to papers that contribute to systematic research
 on diasporas -- in particular, papers that 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 region.

 CFP will distribute the winning paper to its worldwide
 audience of policymakers, political leaders, academics,
 and journalists.

 site.
