SSHRC inviting Applications for Impact Awards 2020 (Canada)

Visual Arts Bursary Award in Ireland

Deadline: 1 April 2020

Applications are now open for the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC) Impact Awards to build on and sustain Canada’s research-based knowledge culture in all research areas of the social sciences and humanities.

The awards recognize outstanding researchers and celebrate their research achievements, research training, knowledge mobilization, and outreach activities funded partially or entirely by SSHRC.

Award funds are to be used for activities that promote and further develop the work being honoured. In recognition of the crucial role post secondary institutions play in mobilizing research knowledge, at least 10 per cent of each award must be used to promote the recipient’s research achievements. Individual recipients and their institutions may choose to devote additional funds, including a higher percentage of the award funds, to these activities.
