Now in its 35th year, the Washington Association of Professional Anthropologists (WAPA) biennial Praxis Award has recognized outstanding achievement in translating anthropological knowledge into action as reflected in a single project or specific, longer-term endeavor.
The competition for this prestigious award is open to anyone holding an MA or PhD in any subfield of anthropology. WAPA strongly encourages self-nominations from individuals, groups or organizations wherein at least one anthropologist worked on and influenced the designated project. Entries are encouraged from anthropologists worldwide.
Award recipients receive a $1000 stipend. For application details and other information see the WAPA website at http://wapadc.org/praxis, or contact award chair Terry Redding at terrymredding@gmail.com. The deadline for entries for the 2015 Praxis Award, JULY 1, is less than a month away.
