Hi Just to remind you who I am: I'm a PhD student at the Institute of Communication Studies at the University of Leeds. I'm doing my research on the role of the media in ICT policy development in Kenya. Does anyone know of any organisation/institution/indivual which would be willing to fund my travel to Kenya to undertake the fieldwork for my PhD project? I have been looking, but there doesnt seem to be much available in the way of small grants. If you know of anyone, please send me their details, I am quite desperate to go in March/April 2010 in order to finish my PhD in time. I've attached a brief project description/proposal. Thanks for your help. Vanessa
