The Skinner Fund provides two awards of $4,000 each to encourage research in the history, art, culture, physical and social anthropology of the Māori and other Polynesian peoples, particularly through recording, survey, excavation, and scientific study of prehistoric and historic sites in New Zealand and the South-west Pacific. The awards are supported by the Green Foundation for Polynesian Research. Applications are accepted on a rolling basis, with the 2026 round closed and nominations reopening in January 2027.
