Published on 

Actu - La bourse Laure Waridel est lancée!

Equiterre and the Caisse d'économie solidaire Desjardins are pleased to announce the launch of the 7th edition of the Laure Waridel bursary. Once again, this year, a $10,000 prize will go to a student or recent graduate for a research, action and dissemination project in the field of the environment and social justice. 

This year, the selection committee will give priority to four themes that are a direct reflection of Equiterre's Strategic plan 2013-2016. More than ever before, the Laure Waridel bursary will contribute to achieving our goals.

The themes are:

  • impact of transporting crude oil from the tar sands
  • electrification of collective and individual transportation
  • impact of pesticides on human and environmental health
  • communications strategy for promoting fair trade in Quebec

Students enrolled in a BA or MA program at a Quebec university have until December 15, 2014 to send their applications by email or by post. Check the eligibility conditions and apply!

We look forward to discovering your projects.
