Klara Abdi, an LLED PhD candidate in TESL, was named a top 25 finalist for the SSHRC Storytellers Competition. The challenge asked postsecondary students from across the country to demonstrate—in three minutes or 300 words—how a SSHRC-funded research project at their institution is making a difference in the lives of Canadians. Notably, UBC is also among the most represented of all institutions in the competition. Klara’s video, as well as the other finalists, can be viewed from the SSHRC Storytellers website.
Well done Klara!
