Two prizes, part-sponsored by Taylor & Francis are available for innovative and high quality undergraduate dissertations on any issue related to the geographies of children, youth and families. The first prize is £100 and a one-year subscription to Children's Geographies; the second prize is £50 and a one-year subscription to Children's Geographies.
The dissertations should be approximately 8,000-10,000 words in length and should be accompanied by moderated institutional marks, illustrative feedback, and reasons for nomination.
Please send the following via email or link (i.e. Dropbox) to: samantha.wilkinson@mmu.ac.uk and s.a.hadfield-hill@bham.ac.uk:
1. a PDF file of the dissertation
2. supporting statement (including final mark, feedback, and reasons for nomination)
3. an email address for the student that will be live after September 2023 (e.g. a personal email address where institutional addresses expire following graduation)
The competition is open to any dissertations produced during the 2023/24 academic year by students enrolled on an undergraduate degree programme at a UK university. Submissions are open to all UK geography departments as well as interdisciplinary degree programmes where the student has engaged with the geographies of children, youth and families literature. Please note a department may not submit more than one entry.
The research group are willing to consider dissertations produced in other formats in cases of reasonable adjustments. If you have a potential submission in a non-standard format please do get in touch with us.
Deadline: 12 July 2024
