Autumn in Southwestern Ontario

The Interdisciplinary Initiative (IDI) in Applied Indigenous Scholarship is pleased to invite applications for scholarships from Indigenous students currently enrolled at Western University and its affiliated Colleges. These awards are intended to support Indigenous students who are pursuing academic studies with the future goal of utilizing their degree within an applied Indigenous community context.  We welcome applications from Indigenous students across all disciplines. 

In 2017, the IDI in Applied Indigenous Scholarship presented scholarships to five Western students who are pursuing academic studies with the future goal of utilizing their degree within an applied Indigenous community context. The awards were presented at the Indigenous Student Graduation Ceremony on April 7th to the following students: Cortney Dakin, Marley Fisher, Paulina Johnson, Alana Pawley and Natahnee Winder. Congratulations to all of the scholarship recipients!
