Funding is available for thesis enrolment fees, research expenses and other expenses such as travel and childcare.

The Scholarship is funded by the New Zealand Federation of Graduate Women Wellington Branch in support of the Branch’s Action Project ‘Women Into Work: Leveraging Refugee and Migrant Potential’. The successful candidate will be expected to keep the Branch informed on their progress via the Branch contact person and to make a presentation to the Branch on the completion of their study.
