STP Schools/MacArthur Project, 1989-1993

Online

The STP/MacArthur Project, 1989-1993 series contains the records created by a collaboration between PCMA, the STP Schools at the Highlander Center in Tennessee, and the Institute for Development Research. PCMA recorded the proceedings of three STP School meetings in 1989, and transcribed two of these. They also distributed questionnaires to the grassroots environmental activists at one of these Schools. These questionnaires are of interest since they describe the tactics, struggles, failures and successes of organizations from all over the country. Another file contains audio recordings of a workshop which brought together activists and researchers from America and the Third World. Other details of this grant-funded project can be found in four folders of correspondence, two proposals to the MacArthur Foundation, and a final report to the Foundation.
