Esther Ngan-ling Chow and Mareyjoyce Green Dissertation Scholarship

Sociologists for Women in Society has worked hard to build a coalition of women scholars who share concerns about the status of women both domestically and internationally or transnationally. In keeping with that mission, SWS established a Women of Color Scholarship at its annual meeting in February 2007. The primary purposes of the scholarship are:

• To offer support to women and non-binary scholars of color who are from underrepresented groups and are studying concerns that women of color face domestically and/or internationally or transnationally.
• To increase the network and participation of students and professionals of color in SWS and beyond
