The International Research & Exchanges Board (IREX) is pleased to
announce the launch of three innovative electronic mailing lists
created under the auspices of the Academic and Civil Society Support
Initiative (ACSSI) Electronic Mailing List Management Training

Under the Electronic Mailing List Management Training Program three
Russian organizations were awarded small grants for the creation and
management of electronic mailing lists, which are hosted on the
IREX server in Moscow in order to ensure the stability and
accessibility of the lists. The participants were provided with
workstations for connection to the Internet, as well as a modem
and/or an account with an Internet Service provider. In addition,
small salary support for a part-time editor of the mailing list was
provided for a year.
