Subject: SSHRC Storytellers/J’ai une histoire à raconter du CRSH
Le français suit.
SHHRC has recently launched its third annual Storytellers contest<http://www.sshrc-crsh.gc.ca/storytellers>, challenging postsecondary students to show Canadians how social sciences and humanities research affects our lives, our world and our future prosperity.
The contest is open to all students, graduate and undergraduate, enrolled at Canadian postsecondary institutions. Their task is to tell the story, in 3 minutes or 300 words, of a SSHRC-funded research project—their own or a professor’s—taking place at their institution. We will select 25 finalists to receive a $3000 cash prize and specialized training in research communications.
We encourage you to spread the word to students, as well as to faculty who may wish to encourage a student to profile their SSHRC-funded research.
For details on this year’s Storytellers challenge, please follow us on Twitter<http://twitter.com/SSHRC_CRSH>, watch the #SSHRCStorytellers<https://twitter.com/search?q=%23SSHRCStorytellers&src=hash> hashtag, and visit the SSHRC website<http://www.sshrc-crsh.gc.ca/society-societe/storytellers-jai_une_histoire_a…>.
Don’t hesitate to be in touch with should you have any questions. Please note that participant questions should be addressed to Storytellers(a)sshrc-crsh.gc.ca<mailto:Storytellers@sshrc-crsh.gc.ca>.
Thank you for your collaboration.
Yours sincerely,

Great research matters. How your students tell its story is just as important.

Le CRSH a récemment lancé son troisième concours national annuel La recherche, fondement d’une vie meilleure : j’ai une histoire à raconter<http://www.sshrc-crsh.gc.ca/recit>, qui met les étudiants universitaires au défi de démontrer aux Canadiens que la recherche en sciences humaines a un impact positif sur leur vie, le monde dans lequel ils vivent et leur prospérité future.
Le concours est ouvert aux étudiants de tous les cycles, inscrits dans un établissement postsecondaire canadien. Leur mandat est de raconter l’histoire, en trois minutes ou en 300 mots, d’un projet de recherche, financé par le CRSH qui est mené dans leur établissement. Le projet peut être le leur ou celui de leur professeur. Nous sélectionnerons vingt-cinq (25) finalistes qui recevront un prix en argent de 3 000 $ et participeront à un atelier spécialisé en communication axée sur la recherche.
Nous vous encourageons à passer le mot aux étudiants ainsi qu’aux membres du corps professoral qui pourraient encourager leurs étudiants à décrire leur projet de recherche financé par le CRSH.
Pour obtenir des détails au sujet du concours J’ai une histoire à raconter de cette année, veuillez nous suivre sur Twitter<http://twitter.com/CRSH_SSHRC>, prêter attention au mot-clic #RécitCRSH<https://twitter.com/search?q=%23R%C3%A9citCRSH&src=typd> et visiter le site Web du CRSH<http://www.sshrc-crsh.gc.ca/recit>.
N’hésitez pas non plus à communiquer avec moi si vous avez des questions. Les questions des participants devraient quant à elles être envoyées à récit(a)sshrc-crsh.gc.ca<mailto:récit@sshrc-crsh.gc.ca>.
Merci de votre collaboration.
