Kishi Animashaun Ducre, assistant professor in the Department of African American Studies in The College of Arts and Sciences, has received a Fulbright award to research and teach in Trinidad and Tobago on feminist epistemology and research methods. She will leave in January 2011 and stay in residence for six months. 

Ducre's research and teaching interests include environmental sociology; environmental justice research methodology; race, class, and gender stratification; geographic information systems and spatial analysis; and African American research methods. 

The Fulbright Program is the flagship international educational exchange program sponsored by the U.S. government and is designed to increase mutual understanding between the people of the United States and the people of other countries. Since its establishment in 1946 under legislation introduced by the late U.S. Senator J. William Fulbright of Arkansas, the Fulbright Program has given approximately 300,000 students, scholars, teachers, artists, and scientists the opportunity to study, teach and conduct research, exchange ideas and contribute to finding solutions to shared international concerns.
