[hre-asiapacific] International Essay Competition for Human Rights Conference in Berlin

Dear all,

The Irmgard Coninx Foundation is starting a new program on human rights
which in the coming years will consist of international conferences and
adjunct workshops to address the social, political, theoretical, and
pragmatic issues of human rights today. The Berlin Roundtables on
Transnationality will launch this year's conference with an international
essay competition to be held on October 4th-6th, 2005 in Berlin.

The 2005 conference will focus on the conditions for implementing human
rights.

20 essayists will be invited to join the international conference and
workshop in Berlin on reframing human rights from October 4th-6th. The
Irmgard Coninx Foundation will cover costs of travel to and accommodation in
Berlin for invited participants.

Furthermore, for the best essay the Irmgard Coninx Foundation will award to
one workshop participant a three months research grant in Berlin for the
year 2006 at the Social Science Research Centre Berlin (WZB) and the
Humboldt University. The recipient will also be invited to join the workshop
in 2006. The Irmgard Coninx Foundation will provide for a monthly stipend of
1000 Euro.
