Worth knowing
Forty awards, and unlike its two sister scholarships this one is not restricted to women: it is open to any student whose gender is underrepresented or disadvantaged in their field, which is how men in nursing-adjacent and care fields have qualified. Graduate students may study outside Alberta; undergraduates must be at an Alberta institution.
About this scholarship
Named for the 1929 ruling that made women legally persons in Canada, this $2,500 award goes to students working to advance gender equality in the arts, humanities and social sciences.
