The Kari Polanyi-Levitt Prize is CASID's annual Graduate Student Essay Contest.

The Kari Polanyi-Levitt Prize is awarded annually to the best original essay by a graduate student in the area of international development studies.

The Prize includes $1000 cash, and consideration of the essay in the regular editorial process of the Canadian Journal of Development Studies (CJDS).

To assist in assessing the essays submitted, the following guidelines have been adapted from those used by the Canadian Journal of Development Studies.

Guidelines for Submissions

  • Submitters must be, or become, members of CASID.
  • Submitters must be Canadian graduate students or international students registered at a Canadian university.
  • The student must be the sole author of the paper submitted.
  • The winner of this award must present their paper in “Towards 2030: Decolonizing ‘Development’ to Bridge Extremes in an Age of Polarization and Pandemic”, which is being held virtually from 31 May - 4 June. 
  • Submissions may be received in either English or French; submissions in French are encouraged.
  • Please note that candidates who are eligible for both the KPL Prize and the Institutional Membership Prize will be considered for both awards.

Editorial Guidelines

  • Ensure that your article is no longer than 9000 words and is submitted on double-spaced pages.
  • Please submit your paper in two documents: 1. A cover page stating the title of the article, author’s name, author’s current degree status (i.e. Masters or PhD candidate), and author’s institution. 2. Your full paper as a separate document. Do not include any identifying information on the paper itself. The cover page is removed for the review process, which is anonymous.
  • Include an introduction, a conclusion, and a bibliography or list of references.
  • Use letter size, 8.5 x 11 with a margin of at least 1 inch all around. If using A4 size paper please leave a 2-inch margin at the bottom.
  • Double space and left align text (leaving a ragged right margin) throughout.
  • Language should be respectful of diversity and difference.
  • Check for grammar and spelling errors before submission.

Essays not meeting the basic editorial guidelines may not be assessed by the Prize Committee. Detailed editorial guidelines will be provided on request, or view the Instructions for Authors at the CJDS website at https://bit.ly/2SgFksS.

Deadline: Complete papers must be submitted in electronic form (MS Word) by May 10, 2021.

Submissions and questions should be directed to admin@casid-acedi.ca with the subject line “KPL Prize”.

All submissions received by the due date will be reviewed prior to a short-listing of the papers to be considered for the prize. Due to the volume of submissions received, non-short-listed papers will not receive any comments.
