The Fondation de l’UQAM has received a $750K donation to support doctoral students pursuing photography. This donation was made by Lise Plante in honour of the memory of her son, Loïc Plante-Barsalo, who was passionate about photography as a vehicle for societal transformation. The funds will be used to create the Loïc Plante-Barsalo Scholarship, which is valued at $75K and will be awarded annually for five years to doctoral students in the fields of the history, theory, or practice of photography. The grant will recognize innovative or experimental projects that focus on knowledge advancement.
