For the development of ethnological works of future generations of Africanists
Created in 2014 thanks to the “Ariane Deluz” legacy and managed by the FMSH, this prize distinguishes a field project from a doctoral student preparing a thesis in ethnology in sub-Saharan Africa.
The prize allows the laureate to carry out field work on the main areas of ethnology (kinship, religion, arts and techniques, politics, etc.). This mobility aid should contribute to the development of the ethnological work of future generations of Africanists.

The price is 5,000 euros; it brings additional resources to the laureate, by contributing to his travel and / or field trips.
