The executive of the Canadian Anthropology Society would like to draw
your attention to the Richard F Salisbury Award for anthropological
research. This award is open to any student registered in an
anthropology doctoral degree programme at a Canadian university. It is
valued at $1 500, and is awarded annually to a student with an
outstanding academic record and an excellent research proposal with
innovative scholarly import and social relevance. The recipient will
be announced during the CASCA Annual Conference, hosted this year by
the University of British Columbia in Vancouver,
May 13-16 2009.
The deadline for accepting applications has been extended to March
31st 2009. For further information, please visit the Awards web page
on this site:

In addition, there are a limited number of student bursaries to help
defray the costs of attending the upcoming CASCA Annual Conference
being hosted by the University of British Columbia, Vancouver, May
13-16 2009. Graduate students currently enrolled in doctoral
programmes (which must be at a Canadian university) will be given
priority.

provided by the American Ethnology Society, please visit the relevant
