Dear Students,

As applicants of the U of T COVID-19 Student Engagement Award in 2020, I am pleased to share that this summer we will be offering another round of funding for student-led projects. The U of T Student Engagement Awards provide financial support to interested University of Toronto undergraduate and graduate students working in collaboration with one another, including in interdisciplinary teams. Projects that contribute to building and fostering a global community, from across all disciplines, are invited.

In recognition of the challenges of the past year, this summer’s U of T Student Engagement Awards will support student-led projects that contribute to rebuilding healthy, resilient, and equitable communities as part of our post-COVID recovery. Given the impact that the pandemic has had on mental health as well as its disproportionate impact on vulnerable populations and communities, submissions focused on these areas are encouraged but not mandatory.

If you were unsuccessful last year but are returning to studies in Fall 2021 you are eligible to reapply. If you were successful last year, you are eligible to reapply as well but please note this must be for a new project. Funding will not be provided to support ongoing work related to last year’s projects. Furthermore, depending on the volume of applications we may prioritize proposals from students who did not receive funding last year.

We encourage you to share the award information with your friends, classmates, and social networks. The award guidelines can be found here: https://global.utoronto.ca/u-of-t-student-engagement-award/

Best wishes,

Julia
