The Mary Fran Myers Scholarship recognizes outstanding individuals who share Mary Fran’s commitment to disaster research and practice and have the potential to make a lasting contribution to reduce disaster vulnerability.
Mary Fran Myers was co-director of the Natural Hazards Center of the University of Colorado for 16 years, until his premature death in 2004. Reducing disaster losses, both nationally and internationally, was their working lives.
The Mary Fran Myers Scholarship provides financial support to the beneficiaries to enable them to attend and participate in the seminar to continue their studies or community work and careers. This scholarship covers all or part of the cost of transportation, hotel accommodation, meals and workshop registration.
The Mary Fran Myers Scholarship is awarded annually to at least one potential workshop participant, which is then formally invited to the seminar. Each year, the recipient or recipients are recognized at the workshop and may be asked to serve as panel discussants, where to deploy their studies or practical experiences in the field of hazards and disasters.
