Rosemary Seymour Research and Archives Awards

September 15, 2020

Open to All Women award and the Māori Women award.

WSANZ banner

In 1974 Rosemary Seymour, a Waikato sociologist, initiated a newsletter and a network of women interested in women’s studies, that evolved into the Women’s Studies Association (NZ)/ Pae Akoranga Wāhine.

In 1985 this fund was established in her memory.  Donations are always welcome.

This year the fund will enable us to make two awards of $1000 each, one for which only Māori women may apply, while the second is open to all women. Women’s groups may also apply, for either award.

There is no form to fill out. Written applications, sent as a Word or pdf document attachment, should include the following:

  • Name of the applicant;
  • For Māori applicants: iwi and hapū, or geographic region;

  • Title and aim of project;
  • Institutional affiliation or organisational involvement, if any;
  • Purpose/Justification;

Aims of Women’s Studies Association (NZ)/Pae Akoranga Wāhine

The WSA (NZ)/Pae AkorangaWāhine is a feminist organisation formed to promote radical social change through the medium of women’s studies.  We believe that a feminist perspective necessarily acknowledges oppression on the grounds of race, sexuality, class and disability as well as gender.  We acknowledge Māori as tangata whenua of Aotearoa.  This means that we have a particular responsibility to address their oppression among our work and activities.

The principles of the Association are:

  • To undertake, promote and disseminate research about women by women from a feminist perspective
  • To inform and educate women about women in culturally appropriate ways
  • To encourage the preservation of existing material about women in culturally appropriate ways
  • To facilitate the establishment of women’s studies courses with a feminist perspective
  • To undertake and promote the publication of material about women
  • To organise and participate in activities, conferences, seminars and displays in furtherance of the aims of the organisation.

Wisdom from members

The symbol of weaving is I think reflective of the journeys we have made as we weave our stories and experiences to better our understanding of ourselves as mothers and our roles in motherhood.
