“Inclusivity is one of our core values, and everyone is welcome at our events.
DWN has a team of volunteer regional leaders across 20 regional groups to ensure events run smoothly across the country.
They offer a wide range of interactive and enjoyable workshops and webinars, from on-farm skills like herd reproduction and calf rearing, to personal development topics such as fostering a positive farm culture and human resources management.
“We also cover business aspects like financial planning, payroll, freshwater farm plans, and nitrogen reporting,” said van Munster.
If you can’t attend a webinar DWN has recorded the sessions and they are available year-round on their website.
“Every year, we invite all members to join us at our annual conference,” said van Munster.
“This event is a fantastic opportunity to learn, connect, network, and inspire each other.
“It’s also a time for celebrating our members and their remarkable contributions with the announcements of the Fonterra Dairy Woman of the Year and DWN Regional Leader of the Year awards.”
DWN is a trusted network that has become an increasingly influential participant in the dairy sector, attracting significant support from leading partners and organisations.
“This support enables us to offer new opportunities for knowledge and leadership development, helping women add more value to it business and personal journey.”
