If you have access to the World Wide Web, the Population Council is beginning to make publications available electronically. The Council's home page address is: http://www.popcouncil.org Under the Gender, Family and Development heading are: SEEDS, profiles which document income generating projects developed by and for low income women and programs to enhance women's productive roles and "Quality/Calidad/Qualit", which depicts reproductive health/family planning programs which offer high quality services in generally resource poor areas.
The Population Reference Bureau is pleased to announce its home page on the World Wide Web. The URL is: http://www.prb.org/prb/ At this Web site we have offered a number of on-line resources,including Population Today (PRB's news monthly),a guide to on-line population-related information resources (under "Media Guide"),and a soon to be launched queriable 1995 World Population Data Sheet. The Web site is designed for the low-end user, particularly in developing countries, so it is not loaded with large graphics files. Despite its low tech look, we expect that the information provided will be very useful to those with an interest in population issues. Please send comments and/or suggestions for links to other useful population-related Web sites.
