[Fabian Katalin]

> Dear Colleagues and Friends,
>
> The Raoul Wallenberg Institute of Human Rights and
Humanitarian Law will
> organize a training programme on the equal status
and human rights of
> women from 4-22 November 2002 in Lund, Sweden.
The training programme
> focuses on human rights and gender issues,
international standards of
> equality and policies aimed at enhancing gender
equality and covers human
> rights protection of women in all pertinent areas.
Particular attention is
> paid to the linkage of specific topics to international
conferences,
> especially the 1995 UN Conference on Women in
Beijing and the +5
> follow-up. The programme is interdisciplinary and
involves aspects of law,
> social sciences, as well as transdisciplinary areas of
development and
> democratization. The programme is designed
primarily for representatives
> from women's organizations, senior staff members of
government agencies
> responsible for equality issues and researchers
dealing with gender and
> related topics. Since elimination of gender
discrimination necessitates
> education and training of both women and men,
nominations of men working
> with equality issues are encouraged.  Individuals
from the following
> countries are invited to apply for the programme:
>
> Albania
> Armenia
> Azerbaijan
> Bosnia Herzegovina
> Croatia
> Federal Republic of Yugoslavia
> Georgia
> Kazakhstan
> Kyrgyz Republic
> Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia
> Moldova
> Tajikistan
> Turkmenistan
> Uzbekistan
>
> Additional information on the training programme is
available on the
> website of the Raoul Wallenberg Institute
(www.rwi.lu.se), where it is
> also possible to download application forms for the
programme. Please note
> that, due to an editorial mistake, Croatia has been
omitted among the
> countries listed in the application brochure that are
invited to nominate
> participants.
>
> The programme is conducted in English and
consequently a high proficiency
> of the English language is required of applicants. The
programme is
> financed by the Swedish International Development
Cooperation Agency
> (Sida). Costs for international travels,
accommodation and training
> materials in connection with the programme are
borne by Sida. In addition,
> participants are given a subsistence allowance to
cover daily expenses.
> The training itself and all practical matters in
connection with the
> programme are administered by the Raoul
Wallenberg Institute.
