NEW SCHOLARSHIP TO MARK HYWEL TEIFI EDWARDS’ SIGNIFICANT CONTRIBUTION

Academi Hywel Teifi has launched an appeal to establish a new scholarship in memory of the late Professor Hywel Teifi Edwards.

The Hywel Teifi Memorial Scholarship will aim to support Welsh-medium postgraduate students who wish to study a field related to Hywel Teifi's contribution to Welsh learning and culture, specifically:

• History

• Literature

• The Welsh language

• Politics

• Media

• Drama

• Religion

• Cultural Studies

This year, Swansea University will celebrate its centenary, and it will be a decade since the Academi was established at Swansea in memory of Hywel Teifi, where he spent 30 years as a lecturer.

Academi Hywel Teifi is asking people to contribute to the scholarship either on a monthly basis by clicking here ( https://www.swansea.ac.uk/academi-hywel-teifi/celebrate/hywel-teifi-memorial-fund/hywel-teifi-scholarship/) or through a one off donation by clicking the 'Support' button on this page. The intention is to award the first recipient at the National Eisteddfod in Ceredigion, Hywel Teifi Edwards' birthplace.
