The Society for the History of Children and Youth offers 12 academic awards spanning 8 languages every biennium. The typical cycle for the awards process is as follows: the juries are formed in the late Summer/Fall; calls for nominations are circulated through social media during the Fall/Winter; deadlines for submission for the previous years publications happen in Winter/Spring; and the announcements are made in the Summer.
Questions about the awards process and committees should be directed to SHCY President (Nicholas Syrett).
