We are delighted to announce that nominations have reopened for our annual Public History Prize.

The prize is awarded to a postgraduate student or an early career researcher who can demonstrate excellence in taking their research beyond the academy. The prize winner receives one year’s free membership of the SHS, a showcase on our Community Exchange and a £300 cash prize.

The prize was created a mark of gratitude to our former chair Professor Pamela Cox, who was tireless in efforts to open dialogue with different audiences while chairing the Social History Society.
