Posted by Jaq-Lin Larder on January 13, 2020 in Announcements

SSHRC recently launched its annual , challenging postsecondary students to creatively show Canadians how social sciences and humanities research has an impact on our lives and our communities.

The contest is open to all studentsā€”graduate and undergraduateā€”enrolled at Canadian postsecondary institutions. Their challenge is to tell the story, in 3 minutes or 300 words, of a SSHRC-funded research projectā€”their own or a professorā€™sā€”taking place at their institution. We will select 25 finalists to receive a $3000 cash prize and specialized training in research communications. For details on this yearā€™s Storytellers contest, please follow us on social media and visit the SSHRC website.Ā 

We encourage you to spread the word to faculty who may wish to encourage a student to profile their SSHRC-funded research. You will find various promotional materials at the .

Should you have any questions, donā€™t hesitate to get in touch with my colleague Sophie Boudreau (sophie.boudreau@sshrc-crsh.gc.ca or 613-992-5129), who is leading this file.

Please note that participant questions should be addressed to Storytellers@sshrc-crsh.gc.ca.

Thank you for your collaboration.

Sincerely,
