ICOS is delighted to be involved with the launch of the Irish Aid Fellowship Alumni Association and hopes the newsletter will be used as an important vehicle for communication with and between former IA Study Fellows.

In this first issue are some inspiring stories from former Study Fellows. We hope you, too, will consider writing about your experience and sharing it with others in future editions. We also encourage you to think about what you can do to set up a local alumni chapter. Further advice is available in the Alumni section of this site.

This is just the beginning and we welcome your suggestions as to how we can create a vibrant and useful network for all.
