DWN Appoints Nicola Bryant as Associate Trustee
Dairy Women's Network (DWN) has announced that Taranaki dairy farmer Nicola Bryant will join its Trust Board as an Associate Trustee.
Dairy Women's Network (DWN) has partnered with IDEXX to launch the IDEXX Scholarship Fund, which aims to break down systemic barriers and increase the representation of women in decision-making roles across the dairy industry.
This initiative will award scholarship/s up to a total of $10,000 per year, over five years. The fund should create sustained impact by enabling women members of DWN to access leadership training, courses, conferences, and mentorship programs.
"DWN is thrilled to partner with IDEXX on this meaningful initiative," says Jules Benton, DWN chief executive.
"We know that leadership capability among women is not lacking - it's the opportunities and resources that often are. This fund helps bridge that gap."
The scholarships are intended to support a range of leadership development activities such as training, conferences, mentorships, and further education. Recipients will also benefit from strengthened networks and support structures, positioning them for success in governance and management roles within the sector.
"At IDEXX, we're passionate about supporting the people who shape the future of farming," says Christopher Lambeth, commercial leader, IDEXX LPD Australia & New Zealand.
