A sidney prize is an award that recognises people who have made a positive contribution to humanity. These awards can be given to people of any nationality, and they can be awarded for a variety of different reasons. They can be used to recognise people who are working to make a difference in the world, and they can also be used to encourage others to take part in social change.
Each year, Overland magazine runs the Neilma Sidney short story prize, which is worth $5000. This year’s winner was Yeena Kirkbright, for her piece ‘Camperdown Grief Junk.’ The runners-up were paid $750 each. The judges of the prize, Laura Elvery, Paige Clark, and Michael Winkler, would like to thank all the writers who entered this year’s competition.
