The Women in Flood and Coastal Erosion Risk Management Awards 2023 are now open for nominations!
They are looking for inspiring individuals of all genders and organisations in the FCERM sector who make a real difference to gender equality in the workplace and across the industry. The two categories for 2023 are ‘inspiring individual who has championed gender equality, diversity and inclusion’:
- across the flood and coastal erosion risk management sector
- within their organisation
Nominees should demonstrate what the individual has done to truly champion gender equality, diversity and inclusion and inspire others. You can either nominate a colleague, or nominate yourself with support from a colleague, to recognise these achievements. An award for each category will be presented at the Flood & Coast gala dinner.
Women in FCERM provides networking and support opportunities for women working in flood and coastal erosion risk management. This is within a broader context of striving for gender equality for everyone so the membership, and the awards, are open to all.
