THE UNIVERSITY OF KWAZULU-NATAL RICHARD AD TURNER BURSARY FUND: POSTGRADUATE SCHOLARSHIP FOR 2023 (FOR MASTERS)
The University KwaZulu-Natal Richard AD Turner Bursary Fund For Masters Study.
DEADLINE: 20 March 2023
The University KwaZulu-Natal Richard AD Turner Bursary Fund For Masters Study
The University KwaZulu-Natal has gratefully received a generous bequest via the terms of the last Will of Winifred Jane Turner, mother of the late “Rick” Turner who was so tragically assassinated during the apartheid era. The University is pleased to establish a Bursary Fund in memory of the late Richard Turner.
Although “banned” for many years, his “oppositional stance” and his involvement with Trade Unions exerted a significance influence within the University community. He taught a clear vision of Democracy decades before a universal franchise became a reality in 1994.
The Richard AD Turner Bursary Fund will provide for a postgraduate scholarship in the “Rick” Turner scholastic tradition of philosophy and political studies. Successful recipients for this award would be postgraduates (Masters) with demonstrable student leadership credentials as well as some proven involvement in community work in which democratic endeavours are highlighted. The award will support Master’s level research which focuses on issues of justice and freedom for all South Africans. The successful “Rick” Turner scholar would be expected to contribute to student leadership while holding the award and his/her field of expertise must be inclined towards trade unionism.
