Geographies of Health and Wellbeing Research Group (GHWRG)

The Geographies of Health and Wellbeing Research Group (GHWRG) offers a dissertation prize, generously sponsored by the journal Health and Place. The prize is open to any currently registered undergraduate student in a UK university and will be awarded to the dissertation that exhibits the most innovative contribution to the geographies of health and wellbeing.

The winner will receive £150 and be showcased on the GHWRG website, and the dissertation in second place will receive £50 plus an honourable mention.

Submissions should usually be of first-class standard and be submitted by the student’s Department (Head or nominated representative) and with the student’s knowledge. Note that we can only accept one entry from any department.

Submissions should be sent as a single PDF file, with a post-university email and contact address for the student. Please send your submission to the Dissertation Co-ordinator Jeremy Auerbach at jeremy.auerbach@ucd.ie

Deadline: to be announced.
