Hauser Center Summer Fellows 2008
For 2008 we have created a new Hauser Summer Fellowship program to support Harvard students working with the Hauser Center or in nonprofit organizations across the globe.

Risa Ward is the first Hauser Summer Fellow Intern and is working at Harvard jointly with the Hauser Center and the Program in Criminal Justice. Ward just finished her sophomore year at Harvard College with a concentration in Social Anthropology. She has a strong interest in nonprofit organizations and in past summers has had the opportunity to work at the Harlem Children's Zone and the National Foundation for Teaching Entrepreneurship.

Ying Zhang is an intern for Soho-Ku New Vision, a public service NGO in Shanghai. Zhang is setting up a curriculum for high school teenagers on entrepreneurship in western China. Through business-competition among students, they hope to match-funds through microfinance institutions to put into practice.

Sayeun Park is working for Americans for the Arts, a policy and research NGO in Washington, DC., which is a leading nonprofit for advancing the arts in America. Park works with the President and CEO and will have the opportunity to experience, first hand, the kind of day to day work that is required for the management of an arts organization.

Syon Bhanot is interning for the Center for Economic and Social Rights (CESR) in Madrid, Spain. This international NGO was founded by Harvard graduates and conducts research on and advocates for human rights.

Jung Park is interning in Indonesia with Ashoka, an organization that works with international development and social entrepreneurship in developing countries. Park is working in community-based health clinics in a rural and under-serviced community for a program that trains local women in healthcare practices, works to reduce infant mortality and improve all healthcare in villages.
