Canadian Science Policy Centre (CSPC): Youth Award Application

The Canadian Science Policy Centre is pleased to announce the competition for the 8th CSPC Youth Award. CSPC is committed to building capacity and empowering a young generation of scientists and policy makers, to develop their expertise and be able to showcase their talent. We encourage all of you below 35 years of age from any discipline, any sector and at any stage of your career, to apply for this award.

This award recognizes an individual under the age of 35 who proposes an innovative and compelling evidence-based policy proposal that will make a positive difference to Canadians. Proposals should be connected to one or more of the themes for the CSPC 2022 listed here.

This award is designed not only to highlight innovative, evidence-driven policy ideas by policy students and young professionals, but also to encourage young people not currently studying, or working in public policy to share their policy ideas. Eligible recipients include all young Canadian residents under 35, regardless of their field of study or work. The CSPC is fully committed to the principles of equity, diversity and inclusion and encourages all qualified participants to apply.
