Sephis E-Magazine

Sephis (South-South Exchange Programme for Research on the History of Development) posted the latest issue of their e-magazine at [url]http://www.sephis.org/pdf/ezine7.pdf[/url]

Since 1994 Sephis activities have facilitated exchanges through conferences, fellowships and lecture tours. We have now embarked on a new initiative, which offers an opportunity for regular dialogue and wider participation. At present there appears to be no magazine dedicated to south-south exchange either in hardcopy or on the www.
