INFO: 2010 United Nations Commission on the Status of Women

From Donald Knight, dknight@apa.org:

-------- Original Message --------

Dear Colleagues:

APA’s UN representatives have recently been informed of an opportunity to nominate a colleague to attend the 2010 United Nations Commission on the Status of Women meeting as an observer for the first week of the meeting, March 1-5, 2010, in New York City.

We are inviting psychologists who are active in research, scholarship or outreach on women’s issues to apply.  Because preference will be given to young women from developing countries, we are especially seeking nominations for early career or student women. More details and nomination instructions are available at www.apa.org/international/un/un-women.html.  More information on the UN Commission on the Status of Women is available at http://www.un.org/womenwatch/daw/csw/.

 Please note that the deadline for receiving nominations at APA is 17:00 EST (Washington DC time), November 12, 2010.

Please forward this notice to any psychology students, colleagues, collaborators who might be interested.

 

Thank you,

The APA Office of International Affairs
