Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander scholars and academics have been invited to submit unpublished manuscripts as entries for the 2023 Stanner Award.
Sponsored by the Australian Institute of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Studies (AIATSIS), the biennial award is open to all Indigenous authors of academic research.The Stanner Award provides an important avenue for First Nations scholars to examine and write about their peoples and cultures through their own eyes, with the author of the winning submission receiving $5000 in prize money, mentoring and editorial support to turn their manuscript into a publication and an inscribed glass eel trap sculpture.
In 2011, Dr Hannah McGlade was awarded for her work Our greatest challenge: Aboriginal children and human rights, with Aboriginal Studies Press, the award-winning publishing arm of AIATSIS, considering all entries for publication.
Named in honour of the late Emeritus Professor W.E.H. (Bill) Stanner, The Stanner Award was established in 1985 as part of the commitment by AIATSIS to facilitate and publish high-quality research in Australian Indigenous studies.
The award recognises the eminent anthropologist’s life and work and his significant contribution to establishing the Institute. Entries for the 2023 Stanner Award will close at 5pm (AEDT) on 28 February 2023.
