Mannkal Scholars
Mannkal promotes student scholarships and various awards to promote the greater understanding of the concepts which underpin free societies.
These scholarships and awards are to students from Western Australian universities as well as exceptional students from other Australian universities.
The scholarships and awards include:
- Sponsorship to attend interstate conferences such as H.R. Nicholls, Samuel Grifffith and HETSA.
- Sponsorship to attend local Mannkal conferences such as Freedom to Choose, Freedom Factory and The Sun Rose in the West.
- Essay writing awards including a Mannkal-ECOMS UWA competition.
- Bursary to undertake international internships with free market and libertarian organisations that includes airfare and accomodation.
- Support to write and publish papers on free market and libertarian related themes.
All of the students that receive a Mannkal scholarship or award are eligible to be appointed to the status of a Mannkal Scholar. This special category of Mannkal alumni recognises individual effort and champions of liberty and freedom. It is a prestigious award which will connect future leaders with some of the world's foremost free market and libertarian thinkers.
All Mannkal Scholars have generally received an earlier Mannkal scholarship to attend a conference or event which links to Mannkal's mission.
A Mannkal Scholar is someone that has excelled in the specific scholarship or award that they have received and has displayed an interest in continuing spreading the message of freedom. This includes the efforts made in articulating the lessons that they have learnt through their receipt of funds to learn about liberty. In short, Mannkal Scholars will be selected based on the hard work that they do after they receive a scholarship or award.
Only a limited number of scholars will be appointed each year with selection a competitive process based on a final decision by the Mannkal Board.
Aside from the intrinsic prestige that this title will carry, Mannkal Scholars have the opportunity to become more intimately involved in the Mannkal Foundation. In particular, they will receive invitations to "The Year Ahead", Mannkal's annual cocktail party, and to the "Annual Scholars Dinner". Each year a highly regarded "Champion of Liberty" is invited to address the exclusive group of Mannkal Scholars at this annual dinner. At this event, those newly appointed Mannkal Scholars will formally be announced.
