In recognition of Alberta's centennial and the contributions and experiences of our diverse population, the Minister of Alberta Community Development established the Alberta Award for the Study of Canadian Human Rights and Multiculturalism. The award will be given to encourage graduate studies that will create value for Albertans by promoting informed thinking about Canadian human rights, cultural diversity, and multiculturalism; and to support the pursuit of studies in Canadian human rights, cultural diversity, and multiculturalism and building capacity to undertake human rights or multicultural work in Canada. For the Master's Level, CAD $10,000 will be awarded and for the Doctoral level, CAD $15,000 will be awarded. Applicants must be enrolled in a program of study that supports the purpose of the scholarship, and planning to do research within a Canadian context and will ultimately benefit Albertans. Applicants must be a Canadian citizen, Permanent Resident of Canada or Protected Person under Canada's Immigration and Refugee Protection Act; Visa students are not eligible.
