Full details form the press release are available as follows and hard copies will me made available in the Refugee Archive in due course:

FMR’s 12-page supplement on Islam, human rights and displacement will soon be available in Arabic and English.

We hope it will enhance debate and understanding of the concepts and
instruments of international human rights in the Islamic world. More
information is online at http://www.fmreview.org/human-rights.htm

How to request copies:

All readers who usually receive the Arabic edition (NHQ) of FMR will receive a copy of the supplement in Arabic with their copy of NHQ 31 in January. You therefore do not need to request it UNLESS you would like to receive multiple copies for training purposes and/or onward distribution.

The English version of the supplement will NOT be mailed out to regular readers of FMR. You need to email us to request copies. We are keen to distribute copies to organisations which would find it useful for training and awareness-raising purposes. We would also be happy to send it to libraries and resource centres.

If you would like copies of the supplement, please email us at
fmr@qeh.ox.ac.uk, indicating:
- which language
- how many
- your full postal address
- and, preferably, how you propose using it.

REMINDER
If you have not already done so, we would be extremely grateful if you would complete our reader survey at http://www.fmreview.org/2008survey.htm This will help us make sure FMR is meeting your needs and give us ideas of how we might improve it. Thank you!
