PROPOSAL

FOR EACH FUND: TO ELECT THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES/DIRECTORS FOR THE FUND.

Discussion

Pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Commission ("Commission") Final Rule: Investment Company Governance (the "Rule"), 17 CFR Part 270, Release No. IC-26323 (June 23, 2004), the disinterested directors1 of most investment companies registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), like the Funds, are required to constitute at least seventy-five percent (75%) of all directors of the fund's board.2 When initially adopted, the Commission designated January 16, 2006, as the compliance date for the Rule. On August 10, 2005, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit ordered the Commission to suspend the effectiveness of the Rule pending judicial review and granted a stay request by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. The Board Restructuring (as defined below) is being proposed in anticipation of implementation of the Rule. The Boards of CSIF, CSIS, CWVF and CIF each believe that the Board Restructuring is consist ent with good governance and in the best interest of their respective shareholders, as described below, even if the Rule does not become effective.

The Boards of CWVF and CIF, each comprised of a majority of disinterested Directors, do not currently meet the proposed 75% disinterested Director requirement. The Boards of these Funds determined at meetings held in June 2005 that the proposed Restructuring is in their respective shareholders' best interests, both to meet the proposed requirement and to better serve the Funds.

Each Board of Trustees/Directors of CSIF and CSIS already meets the proposed 75% disinterested Director requirement. Each of these Boards, like those of CIF and CWVF, also recognized the benefits anticipated to accrue to the Fund and its shareholders from the addition of the three additional disinterested Directors/Trustees to its Board and the resulting access to the expertise, knowledge and perspective of each of these individuals.

For each Fund, the effect of the proposal, if approved, would be to add to the Fund's Board each of the individuals who currently serves as a Trustee/Director of one or more of the other Funds and who is not already a Fund Trustee/Director (the "Board Restructuring"). If each Fund's nominees are elected as Trustees/Directors of the Fund, the same individuals will constitute the Boards for all of the Funds. For CIF and CWVF, the election of the Board as proposed will enable each Fund to comply with the proposed 75% disinterested director requirement, if and when implemented.

At the Board meeting(s) in June 2005, in discussing the proposed Board Restructuring, each Board noted certain of the benefits that were anticipated to result from having the same individuals serve as Trustees/Directors of CSIF, CSIS, CWVF and CIF. Among these anticipated benefits, the Trustees/Directors considered the enhanced efficiency and productivity of Board meetings that were anticipated to result from the proposed Board Restructuring. Each Board recognized the areas of common interest and focus among CSIF, CSIS, CWVF and CIF, and each viewed the prospect of a Board member's responsibility for oversight of a greater number of socially screened portfolios with the Calvert Family of Funds as consistent with good governance and not likely to adversely affect the Fund or its shareholders.

Each Board also considered the proposed Board Restructuring in terms of the anticipated impact on Fund expenses. Among other factors, each Board noted the additional fees and related expenses of adding additional Trustees/Directors to the Board. Each Board also noted certain economies, for example, relating to preparation and mailing of Board materials and for certain legal fees that could be anticipated to result in reduced costs to the Fund.

---------------------------------------------

1 In this proxy statement, "disinterested director" refers to a director or trustee who is not an "interested person" of a Fund, as defined by the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"). Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act defines "interested person" of a fund to include: (i) any affiliated person of the fund; (ii) any member of the immediate family of any natural person who is an affiliated person of the fund; (iii) any interested person of any investment adviser of or principal underwriter for the fund; (iv) any person, or partner or employee of any person, who acted as legal counsel for the fund during the last two completed fiscal years of the fund; (v) any person who executed portfolio transactions for the fund or loaned money or property to the fund during the past six months, or any affiliated person of such a person; and (vi) any natural person who the Commission has determined is an interested person because of his or her m aterial business or professional relationship with the fund during the past two years.

2 This governance requirement is effected by making it a condition of ten commonly used exemptive rules that allow funds to engage in transactions that would otherwise by prohibited under the 1940 Act and that present conflicts of interest between the fund and its investment manager. This new requirement expands upon the fund governance amendments adopted by the Commission in 2001, which require that any fund that relies upon those exemptive rules must have a governance structure that provides, among other things, for a board that has a majority of disinterested directors.

=========================================================================

 

Each Fund's Board, and its disinterested Trustees/Directors acting as the nominating committee of the Fund, unanimously approved the nominees for the Fund, who are listed below.

Thus, the purpose of this proposal is to elect the same Board of Trustees/Directors for each Fund. All of the nominees are currently Trustees/Directors of one or more of the Funds. Each of the nominees elected will serve as a Trustee/Director until a successor is elected and qualified, or until death, retirement, resignation or removal.

The current members of each Board are as follows:

The disinterested Directors also function as a Governance Committee (e.g., addressing matters of fund governance, including policies on Director compensation, and Board and Committee structure and responsibilities), as well as a Nominating Committee (e.g., handling initiation and consideration of nominations for the appointment or election of disinterested Directors). The disinterested Directors of the Fund met four times during the Fund's past fiscal year.

CALVERT WORLD VALUES FUND, INC.

During its fiscal year ended September 30, 2005, CWVF held five Board meetings. CWVF has four standing Committees, as discussed further below. The Governance Committee addresses matters of fund governance, including policies on Director compensation, and on Board and Committee structure and responsibilities; the functions of the Governance Committee of the Board also include those of a Nominating Committee, e.g., initiation and consideration of nominations for the appointment or election of disinterested Directors. The Audit Committee's functions include the following: to approve and recommend to the Board independent public accountants to conduct the annual audit of the Fund's financial statements; review with the Fund's independent public accountants the outline, scope, and results of the annual audit; and review the performance and fees charged by the independent public accountants for professional services. In addition, the Audit Committee meets with the Fund's independent p ublic accountants and representatives of Fund management to review accounting activities and areas of financial reporting and control. The Governance Committee and Audit Committees met four times and five times respectively during the Fund's past fiscal year. The disinterested Directors of the Board (Mr. Guffey, Dr. Mollner, Mr. Roy and Ms. Tennant) comprise both the Governance Committee and the Audit Committee. The Community Investment Committee was created to oversee the investments made through the Fund's High Social Impact Investment program in the Calvert Social Investment Foundation. Mr. Roy and Ms. Tennant are the representatives to the Community Investment Committee. The Community Investment Committee met four times during the Fund's past fiscal year. The Special Equities Committee oversees the Special Equities investment program in social venture capital investments, including review, selection, and fair valuation of such investments. Ms. Krumsiek and Messrs. Guffey, Roy, and Silby comprise the Spec ial Equities Committee. The Special Equities Committee met nine times during the Fund's past fiscal year.

Nominating Committee Charter and Nominating Process

The Board of each Fund has adopted a charter for its Nominating Committee (or the Committee performing similar functions) setting forth the Committee's responsibilities. A copy of the Charter is available on the Calvert website at www.calvert.com.

As explained above, the Governance Committee for each of CSIF, CSIS and CWVF, and the disinterested Directors for CIF (who function as a Governance Committee) perform nominating committee functions. Each Committee met four times during the Fund's fiscal year ended September 30, 2005. The Committee of each Fund will consider any candidates for vacancies on the Board from any shareholder of the Fund who has held his or her shares for at least five years. Shareholders of a Fund who wish to nominate a candidate to the Board of the Fund must submit the recommendation in writing to the attention of the respective Fund's Secretary at 4550 Montgomery Avenue, Suite 1000N, Bethesda, MD 20814. The recommendation must include biographical information, including business experience for the past ten years and a description of the qualifications of the proposed nominee, along with a statement from the proposed nominee that he or she is willing to serve and meets the requirements to be a disinterested Tru stee/Director.

Each Committee considers candidates through personal and business contacts of the Directors/Trustees. When identifying and evaluating prospective nominees for vacancies on the Board, the Committee considers the background and experience of a candidate, including the integrity and character of the proposed nominee, the proposed nominee's compatibility with the current Directors/Trustees, and any other factors it may determine to be relevant. The Committee also will consider whether the nominee would be an "interested person" of the Fund. Furthermore, the Committee requires each nominee to complete a questionnaire and may require an interview with the nominee. The Committee seeks to apply a search protocol that seeks qualified Board candidates from a variety of areas, which may include but is not limited to the traditional corporate environment, government, academia, private enterprise, non-profit organizations, and professions such as accounting, human resources, and legal services. In the process of searching for qualified persons to serve on the Board, the Committee strives for

the inclusion of diverse groups, knowledge, and viewpoints.

Communications to the Board

Any shareholder of a Fund who wishes to send a communication to the Fund's Board of Trustees/Directors should send the communication to the attention of the Fund's Secretary at the following address:

Calvert Funds
Attn: [Name of Fund], Secretary
4550 Montgomery Avenue
Suite 1000N
Bethesda, Maryland 20814

All communications should state the Fund to which the communication relates. After reviewing the communication, the Fund's Secretary will forward the communication to the Board of Trustees/Directors.

If a shareholder wishes to send a communication directly to an individual Trustee/Director or to a Committee of the Fund's Board of Trustees/Directors, then the communication should be specifically addressed to such individual Trustee/Director or Committee and sent in care of the Fund's Secretary at the address above. Communications to individual Trustees/Directors or to a Committee sent in care of the Fund's Secretary will be forwarded to the individual Trustee/Director or to the Committee, as applicable.

 Recommendation

Each Fund's Board recommends that you vote FOR each of its Trustees/Directors listed above.

OTHER BUSINESS

The Boards do not intend to present any other business at the Special Meeting. If, however, any other matters are properly brought before the meeting, William M. Tartikoff, Esq. and Barbara J. Krumsiek will vote on the matters in accordance with their judgment.

INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

The Audit Committee and the Board of Directors/Trustees of each Fund have approved KPMG LLP ("KPMG") as the independent public accountants for the Fund's fiscal year ending September 30, 2005. Representatives of KPMG are not expected to be present at the Special Meeting, but will have the opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so. Such representatives will be available if any matter requiring KPMG's presence arises.

Each Fund's Audit Committee is required to pre-approve all audit and non-audit services provided by the independent public accountants to the Fund, to the Advisor, or any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the Advisor that provides ongoing services to the Fund. In determining whether to pre-approve non-audit services, each Fund's Audit Committee considers whether the services are consistent with maintaining the independence of its independent public accountants. Each Fund's Audit Committee may delegate its authority to pre-approve certain matters to one or more of its members. In this regard, the Audit Committee for each of CSIF, CSIS and CIF has delegated pre-approval authority to the Audit Committee Chair jointly with another Committee member with respect to non-audit services not exceeding $25,000 in each instance. The Audit Committee for CIF has delegated pre-approval authority to the Audit Committee Chair with respect to non-audit services not exceeding $2 5,000 in each instance. In addition, the Audit Committee for each Fund has pre-approved the retention of the Fund's independent public accountants to provide certain tax-related services related to the tax treatment and tax accounting of newly acquired securities, upon request by the Advisor in each instance.

The following reflects the fees billed in each of the last two fiscal years for professional services rendered by KPMG.

    Calvert Family of Funds
    4550 Montgomery Avenue
    Suite 1000N

  • call 800-368-2745
  • visit Calvert's website at www.calvert.com

SHAREHOLDER PROPOSALS

The Funds are not required to hold annual shareholder meetings. A Fund shareholder who would like to submit proposals for consideration at the Fund's future shareholder meetings should send written proposals to the Calvert Legal Department, 4550 Montgomery Avenue, Suite 1000N, Bethesda, Maryland 20814.

DELIVERY OF DOCUMENTS TO SHAREHOLDERS SHARING AN ADDRESS

Only one proxy statement is being delivered to multiple shareholders sharing an address unless the Fund has received contrary instructions. Upon written or oral request, a separate copy of the proxy statement will be delivered to shareholders at a shared address, to which a single copy of the documents was delivered. If you wish to receive a separate proxy statement, or wish to request a single copy of proxy statements in the future (if you are receiving multiple copies), contact the Fund as directed under "Annual and Semi-Annual Reports".

VOTING INFORMATION

Proxies are solicited initially by mail. Additional solicitations may be made by telephone, computer communications, facsimile or other such means, or by personal contact by officers or employees of Calvert and its affiliates or by Computershare Fund Services, a proxy soliciting firm retained for this purpose. By voting as soon as possible, you can save your Fund the expense of follow-up mailings and calls. The respective Funds will be responsible for the pro rata share of the solicitation costs (which include preparing, printing and mailing the proxy materials) estimated to cost approximately $561,600 in the aggregate.

A proxy may be revoked at any time before the meeting or during the meeting by oral or written notice to William M. Tartikoff, Esq., 4550 Montgomery Avenue, Suite 1000N, Bethesda, Maryland 20814. Unless revoked, all valid proxies will be voted in accordance with the specification thereon or, in the absence of specification, for approval of the proposal.

=========================================================================

 

Provided that "Quorum" requirements (as defined below) are met, the twelve (12) individuals who receive a plurality of the votes cast by a Fund's shareholders will be elected to the Board of that Fund. All classes and Portfolios of a Fund vote together. "Quorum" means (i) for the Funds other than CSIF, the presence in person or by proxy of shareholders entitled to cast a majority of all of the votes entitled to be cast at the meeting; and (ii) for CSIF, the presence in person or by proxy of shareholders entitled to cast one-fourth of the total number of shares of the Fund entitled to vote at the meeting.

Any abstentions and broker non-votes will be counted as shares present for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present but will not be voted for or against any adjournment or proposal. A broker non-vote is when a broker holds the shares and the actual owner does not vote and the broker holding the shares does not have the authority to vote the shares. This means that abstentions and broker non-votes effectively will be a vote against adjournment or against any proposal where the required vote is a percentage of the shares present.

Shareholders of each Portfolio of record at the close of business on September 16, 2005 ("Record Date") are entitled to notice of and to vote at the Special Meeting or any adjournment thereof. Shareholders are entitled to one vote for each share held on that date. As of September 16, 2005, as shown on the books of the applicable Portfolio, there were issued and outstanding:
