    Growing Hope in India

    Thousands of families in Indian villages have better nutrition - and lives - thanks to a partnership between the U of A and the father of India's 'Green Revolution.

    A visitor emerges from a bil in rural India and walks toward a group of villagers. The sound of drums and cymbals fills the air as three dozen men, women and children start to sing. The visitor, U of A development economist Brent Swallow, looks a little bewildered but keeps walking, his step slowing as he takes in the sound and spectacle.

    TWAS's 42 Founding Fellows
    The idea to create an academy for scientists from the developing world was first discussed among a small group of internationally renowned researchers in October 1981 during a meeting of the Pontifical Academy of Sciences in Rome, Italy. Under the leadership of Abdus Salam, the Pakistani physicist and Nobel laureate, the Third World Academy of Sciences – TWAS – was founded in Trieste, Italy, in 1983, with a formal ceremony at the University of Trieste and the International Centre for Theoretical Physics (ICTP). The initial class of elected members – TWAS's Founding Fellows – was comprised of 42 scientists, nine of them Nobel laureates.
