The Sarai programme at the Centre for the Study of Developing Societies is looking for interns for a new initiative called *The Delhi Platform*. The Platform is a year-long series of critical events and discussions, intended as an effort towards creating new sites of critical, independent urban discourse on all themes affecting the city. We plan a platform that travels to different parts of Delhi in the coming months, leading up to the Commonwealth Games and beyond the event. The platform will be a collaboration between different institutions interested in Delhi's urbanism. The platforms will involve people from all walks of life: scholars, practitioners, activists, writers, artists, ordinary citizens. The platform will have an active online presence; all sessions will be documented and presented in the public domain.
We are looking for interns with a passionate interest in issues of urban life and public debate in general. The platform events will take place on an average of once or twice a month. As part of the Platform, interns would be involved in providing logistical support at the event venues, managing the website and moderating discussions, corresponding with speakers and coordinators, dealing with the press and media, writing event notifications and press releases, and so on. If you are interested, please send your C.V. to [email protected] by *10 February 2010*. Be sure to tell us when you will be in a position to join the Platform.
