Dear Colleagues,

 

Thank you for your support for the two meetings we held in the autumn with a view to developing a UCD Development and Humanitarian Network at UCD. One of the matters we addressed at our last meeting - the IRC Caroline MSCA Co-Fund Post-Doctoral Fellowships - has since moved on and yielded a number of positive outcomes for UCD with funding successes.

 

We had discussed a follow up meeting for December/January, but for a number of reasons the dates proposed did not work out. I apologise for hiatus, extended by a demanding semester, just finishing

 

Ciarán and I would like to convene a further meeting before the end of the academic year to implement the idea for a kind of speed dating at which members of the network take no more than five minutes to present a project, an initiative or an activity in the development/humanitarian area which they are involved with and which benefits from sharing and engagement with others on the campus. This will facilitate learning and cooperation across the campus with a view to building greater interdisciplinary engagement.

 

Could I ask you to do the following:

 

1. Confirm availability for Monday 12th June, 2-3.30pm for our next network meeting in D101 Newman

2. Offer your participation with a short outline of a project, initiative or activity which you wish to engage the network with.

3. Share this message with colleagues with interests in development/humanitarian matters and ask them to respond too.

Many thanks. We look forward to renewing conversations in June with a view to moving the Network forward.

 

With best wishes,

 

Ciarán Ó hÓgartaigh

Colin Scott
