To support participation in its activities and annual meetings, the Council on Anthropology and Education (CAE) awards stipends to New Scholars (graduate students or recent graduates within 4 years of receiving doctorate) who are selected to present a CAE-sponsored paper or poster at the place-based annual meetings. The stipends are intended to help defray expenses associated with participating IN PERSON in the annual meetings. The awarded stipends total approximately $250 each. Individuals are eligible to receive the stipend only one time, and first-time presenters will receive priority. Preference is given to individuals from underrepresented groups who meet the criteria below. Applicants are invited to name their membership in any group(s) they belong to that they believe warrants consideration as underrepresented in the field of educational anthropology.

Awardees will be notified prior to the AAA meetings, and the awards will be formally announced in conjunction with the AAA meeting. The monetary award will be dispersed via electronic check. We welcome submissions from applicants of all citizenship statuses who are practicing anthropologists, regardless of where you are located on the globe.
