Dear Ms. Beinhacker,
I am a graduate student research assistant working with Carol Pavlish, PhD, RN, FAAN who is an Associate Professor in the School of Nursing at the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA). Volunteering for the American Refugee Committee, we developed a learning program on Health and Human Rights which will be uploaded onto LINGOS website (ngolearning.org). LINGOs is a consortium of over 75 international humanitarian relief, development, conservation and health organizations. LINGOs provides the latest learning technologies and courses so these non profits can increase the skill levels of their employees, and therefore increase the impact of their programs.
We are inquiring whether you hold the copyright for your artwork that currently appears on Flicker. If so, we seek your permission to use your beautiful artwork into one of the powerpoint slides for the Health and Human Rights course. This course will be available to staff around the world who work for organizations that are members of LINGOs. There is no fee required for staff to take the course – nor do faculty or UCLA profit in any way from this course.
Thank you very much for considering this request!
