SSHRC Storytellers Challenge has Launched!SSHRC's annual Storytellers Challenge asks postsecondary students to show Canadians, in up to three minutes or 300 words, how social sciences and humanities research is affecting our lives, our world and our future for the better. The Challenge is open to all graduate students enrolled at a Canadian postsecondary institution to tell the story of a SSHRC-funded research project—their own or that of a researcher at their institution. A jury will then select 20 finalists. These Top 20 submissions will each be awarded $3,000 and additional training in research communications will be offered. In June 2025, the Top 20 will compete for a chance to place among the Final Five winners and receive an additional $1,000. For more details on this year’s Storytellers Challenge, please click here.
