The annual contest challenges postsecondary students from across the country to demonstrate — in three minutes or 300 words — how SSHRC-funded research is making a difference in the lives of Canadians. The top 25 finalists, representing 18 postsecondary institutions from across Canada, were selected from among nearly 200 entries. Each finalist receives a cash prize of $3,000 and will go on to compete in The Storytellers Showcase at the 2016 Congress of the Humanities and Social Sciences, May 28 to June 3 at the University of Calgary.

Again, our congratulations to Shelley, Tara, and Ron!
