Access to judicial
processes to recognize rights and redress violations is the very cornerstone of
the rights based approach. This is critical for ensuring all human rights,
including women’s human rights. Hence, South Asia Women's Fund is launching The Legal Fellowships programme, which seeks to address
the gap of adjudicating women’s rights cases through a feminist legal praxis,
enabling a creation of a legal resource pool to support and work for the women
survivors of violations. The programme is open to women lawyers, women human
rights defenders with para-legal training working in small towns at the
primary/lower court level in Bangladesh, Nepal, India, Pakistan and Sri Lanka.
The last date for applications is 31st January 2013. To read more about the programme
and the application process please visit the SAWF home page at www.sawf.info.
We request all friends to spread the word about this extremely critical
programme. Please email us on sawfrgp@sawf.info or drop us a message on
our facebook page (http://www.facebook.com/pages/South-Asia-Women-Fund/124579188264?ref=stream
) if there are any queries/clarifications regarding the programme.

Deadline: 1st Apr 2013
Interest Area(s): ConservationThousands of species throughout the world are currently facing the real threat of extinction due to heavy poaching, illegal trade of wildlife, especially regarding bushmeat and ivory, human-wildlife conflict, disease, and disappearing habitats.

The goal of the CEACF is to provide support to projects that have a high likelihood of creating long-lasting benefits to species facing the immediate threat of global extinction. In 2011 alone, the program awarded $593,822 in grants for 29 projects in 19 countries worldwide – targeting over 20 critically endangered species of birds, mammals, and reptiles.: http://www.fws.gov/
