Leadership and governance development of women involved in the primary sector was celebrated
last week as the Agri-Women’s Development Trust (AWDT) marked the 100th graduate from its
Escalator programme.
The Agri-Women’s Development Trust (AWDT) has a new general manager with the appointment of Lisa Sims to the role.
Leading primary sector women’s development organisation, AWDT, has announced a new interim chair and three new trustees, following its annual general meeting on 21 May 2018.
Planning for long-term business success is the focus of a new AWDT programme for sheep and beef farming partners, developed in response to strong industry demand.
A ‘mighty big aspiration’ to find a balance between food production, the environment and people came a step closer last week when 14 women involved in primary industries graduated from AWDT’s national leadership and governance programme.
170 Kiwi farming women will open this folder soon.
We're proud to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with them, and take this next step together.

After Wendy Hopcroft completed our First Steps [It's all about YOU] and Understanding Your Farming Business programmes, her leadership 'snowballed' as she stepped up to serve on the Beef + Lamb New Zealand Farmer Council, in Red Meat NZ projects, her local catchment group, a local discussion group and in her own farming business.

Like you, we've been adapting to our new normal. But while alert levels and safety measures might change, our commitment to empowering women doesn't.

As you can see, the UYFB is, once again, proving popular with the punters! If you haven't indulged yourself, why not take a little time out for the sake of yourself, your farming business, your family and your future. And why not tag a "sister" or an actual sister, sister-in-law, mother, mother-in-law, sister-in-law, neighbour, friend, recent arrival to the district or the sector - tag someone who you think would benefit/enjoy such an amazing opportunity. I've never heard of anyone that's regretted finding the time for UYFB.
Nice
Sophie Land or Chloe Reeves would you have time for this good opportunity?
