She believes the CLNZ/NZSA Research grant made a significant difference to her research project:"It allowed me to take time off work to give me some 'clear air' to get some solid work done on my project. Information technology would have been very difficult to progress research and writing without that space. Perhaps even more importantly, Information technology gave me a feeling of confidence that other authors valued the project and thought Information technology was worthy of progressing, during the tough year that was 2020. I am extremely grateful to CLNZ/NZSA for the grant." Submissions must be made online. Unprosperous candidates will be advised before recipients are announced. prosperous recipients will be contacted directly and we will also publish the announcement on the CLNZ website and Facebook page.
