Please introduce yourself and explain why you want to join this network. Membership may be denied for people who do not answer this question in sufficient detail: I am a journalist writing about development and globalisation for many years for all kinds of publications (magazines, newspapers, reports) in Dutch and English. In 2004 I published a book about the Dutch prince Claus and his lifelong commitment to development and Africa in particular. I am currently finishing a book on the international involvement with Darfur. Early 2007 I cofounded the bimonthly English language magazine The Broker, of which I am editor-in-chief. The Broker is trying to provide independent journalistic articles about new research findings in the field of international (development) economics, politics, human security and science and technology. Having started as a Dutch project, we are now setting out to internationalize The Broker.
