EMERGING LEADER PROGRAM
NUTURING FUTURE LEADERS IN NRM
THE PROGRAM
In 2017 Terrain NRM created a new one year mentoring program designed to nuture future leaders in the NRM sector and increase our Board’s insights into youth perspectives on natural resource management issues and priorities.
The program provides a rare opportunity for young people with board director aspirations to participate in board meetings and be exposed to the board process in a leading not for profit organisation. Successful candidates learn about governance and establish valuable contacts and networks to help them in their careers.
Emerging Leaders are paid to attend quarterly board meetings.
