TSEP working paper series

These papers are based upon work conducted within the TSEP network, with the financial support of European Commission, European Science Foundation and Charities Aid Foundation. Unfortunately, we are not able to include all the papers described here at this time, to allow time to respond fully to comments arising from the dissemination event for stakeholders in June. Revised and corrected versions of most of the papers have been posted in November 2005. 

You may view or print the full text of the paper in PDF format using Adobe Acrobat. We regret that it is not possible to provide printed copies.
