A virtual event organized by the Sociology of Childhood and Youth Research Cluster & Student Concerns Subcommitte.

Navigating the world of research funding can be challenging. Join us for an engaging panel discussion designed to help students unlock opportunities and navigate the world of research funding, fellowships, scholarships, and grants. Our panel will share practical advice on securing competitive funding (PhD and postdoc), with examples drawn from childhood and youth research.

The panel will provide insights into major funding agencies, including SSHRC, and share practical tips based on their experiences as successful applicants, scholarship recipients, and grant holders. The event will conclude with an interactive Q&A featuring the panelists.
