The United Nations Association of Hamilton and District commemorated its 50th Anniversary in 1995 by establishing a bursary currently valued at $500 (Cdn) for graduate students of McMaster University. The student may be in any program, and who are undertaking field training or volunteer work among other cultures in regions distant from McMaster University or regions difficult to access.
The work must be intellectually sound and of practical value; the student must demonstrate an understanding of the impact of his or her work on the social and natural environment of the region where the work will be carried out. Students will demonstrate in the letter of application an awareness of how their activity relates to current United Nations endeavors.
