OAK HUMAN RIGHTS FELLOWSHIP
2001 Focus: Gender and International Human Rights

The Oak Institute for the Study of International Human Rights at Colby
College is soliciting nominations for the Oak Human Rights Fellowship 
for the fall of 2001. The Oak Fellowship offers an opportunity for 
prominent practitioners in international human rights to take a 
sabbatical leave from their work and spend a semester (September - 
December 2001) as a scholar-in-residence at the College. This
provides 
the Fellow time for reflection, research, and writing. Following the 
period of the award, it is expected that the Fellow will return to
her 
or his human rights work. For the fall of 2001, the Oak Institute 
seeks a practitioner in the field of gender and international human 
rights. Possible areas of interest include but are not limited to:
the international sex trade, domestic violence, women and labor 
rights, rape as a form of war crime, struggles related to 
sexuality/sexual orientation, among others.  

Nominations for the Oak Fellowship for the fall 2001 semester should 
be sent to Professor Mary Beth Mills, Anthropology Department, Colby 
College,Waterville, Maine 04901 (fax: 207-872-3474 / 3752;  e-mail: 
oakhr@colby.edu; phone 207-872-3813/3683). NOTE: Completed

Please ensure that nominations reach the Institute with sufficient 
time for us to forward applications to nominees and for nominees to 
meet the application deadline. More information - including 
APPLICATION FORM- is available on the Institute's Web site at
