Del Jones was a distinguished member of Society for Applied Anthropology and an African American anthropologist who developed perspectives that could assist and transform the lives of oppressed and disadvantaged peoples. Following his death in 1999, close friends and members of the Society established the Del Jones Memorial Travel Award. This award supports travel grants for a student to attend the annual meeting of the Society. The award is intended to increase minority participation in SfAA, particularly African American participation, but also to honor the life and work of Del Jones independently of the minority criterion. The winning paper will best reflect the contributions and/or life experiences of Del Jones. Individuals must have been enrolled as a student during some part of the current year. The abstract and paper should be concerned with efforts to assist and transform the lives of oppressed or disadvantaged people. Please visit the award's website or contact the Society for Applied Anthropology for more information.
