We are pleased to invite applications to the Kākano Fund from students enrolled during 2017 in a degree course for a BA Hons. or M.A. in Social and/or Cultural Anthropology. Consideration will also be given to PhD students if funding permits. This is the second round of awards for 2017.

Applications can be made for funds to be used towards conference presentations or costs related to the preparation of a thesis/dissertation. Students are eligible for an award if their course requires the completion of a single thesis, a dissertation, or a research portfolio, and if the date of final submission of their work falls within the period of 1 October 2017 to 31 March 2018.

The deadline for round two applications is Wednesday 25 October 2017. Application forms are available here.

If you have any queries about the award, please contact the acting Chair of the Kākano Committee, Dr Lorena Gibson.
