About This Opportunity

The CFUW Legacy Award is dedicated to past members of CFUW who have made significant contributions to the work of CFUW. This award acknowledges their leadership by providing fellowship support in their memory. The Fellowship is awarded to a woman who has completed one calendar year of a doctoral program at the time of application. The PhD thesis research or project must focus on advancing gender equality and is not restricted to a specific field of studies. Examples include research in law focusing on access to justice for Aboriginal women, international development using an intersectional feminist approach, pharmacy examining sex and gender bias in clinical research, or computer science exploring gender bias in big data. The Fellowship is tenable in Canada or abroad and recognizes the CFUW members' belief in the education of girls and women.
