[Reader-list] [Announcements] Call for Internships for Urban Research

[Mitoo Das]

*Call for Internships for Urban Research

*
The Sarai programme at the Centre for the Study of Developing Societies 
is looking for interns for a new initiative called *The Delhi Platform*. 
The Platform is a year-long series of critical events and discussions, 
intended as an effort towards creating new sites of critical, 
independent urban discourse on all themes affecting the city.  We plan a 
platform that travels to different parts of Delhi in the coming months, 
leading up to the Commonwealth Games and beyond the event. The platform 
will be a collaboration between different institutions interested in 
Delhi's urbanism. The platforms will involve people from all walks of 
life: scholars, practitioners, activists, writers, artists, ordinary 
citizens. The platform will have an active online presence; all sessions 
will be documented and presented in the public domain.

We are looking for interns with a passionate interest in issues of urban 
life and public debate in general. The platform events will take place 
on an average of once or twice a month.

As part of the Platform, interns would be involved in providing 
logistical support at the event venues, managing the website and 
moderating discussions, corresponding with speakers and coordinators, 
dealing with the press and media, writing event notifications and press 
releases, and so on.

If you are interested, please send your C.V.  to delhiplatform at sarai.net 
by *10 February 2010*. Be sure to tell us when you will be in a position 
to join the Platform.
