Shastri Indo-Canadian Institute Research Award

December 24, 2007

Just got a letter in the mail that i was awarded an India Studies Fellowship from the Shastri Indo-Canadian Institute to support my research in Nagaland.

The Fellowship is still contingent on GOI approval which Shastri will work on, fund availability in the 2008-2009 fiscal year and secured affiliation with an Indian Institution.  All is not final til well it is final.  Resources will cover travel in India and will support a stipend for research assistants and data gathering activities.

The Topic is the Study of the Creation of a Naga Indigenous Community Cybercartographic Atlas using Web 2.0 Technologies in India’s North East utilizing Grounded Theory Informed Participatory Action Research Methods.

Well! I need to get my teleological drinking (expression from mtl3p) out of the way between now and January so that I may be in fine form for the new year!
