College of Humanities and Social Sciences Scholarship

from Dr. Valentine U. James, College of Humanities and Social Sciences (CHSS)

This e-mail letter is evidence of how the scholarship generated from CHSS is influencing international development policy around the world.

Dear Sir:

My name is Ben Waugh and I’m writing to you on behalf of a project funded by the UK Department for International Development (DFID).  We have been asked to gather evidence concerning the role of communications in development, and to make this readily available on the Internet.

The evidence will be presented in a way that appeals to policy makers from five different sectors identified by the project – agriculture, education, health, governance and growth.  Our primary target group is research assistants and others involved with the background work that influences the forming of policy.  This is one of a number of projects that DFID is currently funding under their programme on information and communication for development, and we are in contact with a number of multi-lateral donor groups (e.g. UN and DAC), to make sure that the web portal will be of value to the wider community of interest.

We are currently in the process of compiling the evidence and would like to refer to a document on your site.
http://www.jsd-africa.com/Jsda/Spring2005/ArticlePDF/Arc_Corruption%20and%20Economic%20Growth.pdf

We believe that this document is valuable to the project and would like to include it on our portal.  However, we are keen to go about it in the right way.  In designing the portal, we are proposing:

- to upload documents to the independent portal site;
- to include a link to the original document URL, so that users can then explore the host site, and as accreditation.

Thanks for your assistance; we would greatly appreciate your response and any other comments you might have.

Ben Waugh
