SSHRC Storytellers Contest

Posted by Suman Jha on November 30, 2015 in Announcements

SHHRC has recently launched its fourth annual , challenging postsecondary students to show Canadians how social sciences and humanities research affects our lives, our world and our future prosperity.                            

The contest is open to all students,Ìýgraduate and undergraduate, enrolled at Canadian postsecondary institutions. Their task is to tell the story, in 3 minutes or 300 words, of a SSHRC-funded research project—their own or a professor’s—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 year’s Storytellers contest, please follow us on , watch the  hashtag, and visit .

We encourage you to spread the word to faculty who may wish to encourage a student to profile their SSHRC-funded research. This message will also be sent to the listserv of the Canadian Association of Research Administrators (CARA).

Don’t hesitate to be in touch should you have any questions. Please note that participant questions should be addressed to Storytellers@sshrc-crsh.gc.ca.ÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌý

Thank you for your collaboration.
