The Crawford Fund Student Awards:
go, see, learn
The Crawford Fund is excited to launch three 2026 awards for students at Australian universities, as part of the Crawford Fund’s suite of opportunities in our NextGen program to encourage the next generation in agriculture for development.
Applications for our 2026 Crawford Fund Student Awards, Conference Scholarships and our 2026 Crawford Fund Henzell Awards are now open.
If you are at an Australian university, at either undergraduate or postgraduate level, one of these awards may offer you an opportunity to add an international component to your studies, experience, and career pathway.
International agricultural research for development needs people from a broad range of fields – agriculture, animal production, fisheries, forestry, natural resource management – in fact, any area broadly related to food and nutrition security! So both our Student Awards and our Henzell Awards are open to students involved in degrees beyond agriculture, such as social sciences, gender, environment, health, nutrition, communication, AI, data analytics, business or finance… if you can explain the connection with improving food and nutrition security, please get on board as agriculture for development needs you!
These awards will open a whole new world of personal and professional experience, networks, and career opportunities.
