SSHRC Connection Award

Deadline: June 15

Additional information

The Connection Award recognizes an outstanding SSHRC-funded initiative to facilitate the flow and exchange of research knowledge within and/or beyond the academic community. It is given to an individual or team whose project has engaged the campus and/or wider community, and has generated intellectual, cultural, social and/or economic impacts.

In the case of a team project, the nominee must be the applicant for the initiative.

Connection Award funds ($50,000) must be used within three years to extend the knowledge mobilization activity being recognized, or to support other research-related activities. A minimum of 10 per cent of the award funds must be used to promote the recipient’s research achievements.
