Welcome

Thanks to a partnership through the Oregon International Law Insitute at University of Oregon School of Law, I will be spending the summer in India. I will be working with Dr. Vandana Shiva on cases in the Indian Supreme Court on issues of intellectual property, land, seed and water rights. Go to http://navdanya.org/ to check out what her organization works on. I will also be helping to set up the Tech to Farmer campaign, helping connect Indian tech workers here in the US to Indian farmers who, due to trade agreements such as the WTO have been committing suicide in response to the policies of corporate profiteers. For more information on the phenomena see http://www.countercurrents.org/glo-shiva050404.htm. I will be keeping this blog as up to date as possible on all the activity that goes on. Enjoy!
