Award in Gender Studies for contributions to furthering our understanding of issues concerning gender
Awarded: Biennally |
The Award in Gender Studies was established by RSC in 1999, through the generous donation of Fellows, to recognize significant contributions by a Canadian scholar in the humanities and social sciences to furthering our understanding of issues concerning gender.
The award, in the form of a diploma, is offered every two years if there is a suitable candidate.
The selection committee consists of six Fellows, three from the Academy of the Arts and Humanities - one from each division, and three from the Academy of Social Sciences (at least one from each of the two divisions). Each committee member shall serve for four years and the senior committee member, by rotation, shall act as Chair.
